Introduction
The Eurasian Patent Office (EAPO) (who created the Eurasian Patent Information System (EAPATIS)) now offers a free patent information service known as the Eurasian Publication Server.[1] The server interface is only available in Russian, so users should utilize an online translation service (like Google Translate) to translate the website into their desired language. The EAPO website describes the coverage of the contents within the Eurasian Publication Server:[1]
Eurasian publication server provides access to primary publications (including full descriptions of inventions to Eurasian applications and patents), and to information, published in the notifications on applications and patents in official Gazettes, as well as to information on legal status of patents. Information on new patent documents on the Eurasian publication server appears immediately after the EAPO official publications are published. [...] The full retrospective (since 1997) of descriptions of inventions to patents is provided in PDF format. The retrospective of descriptions of inventions to applications is provided for documents, published since 1999. The previous documents have only descriptions which were recovered from application files.
Use
The search form allows the user to search by:
- Publication number
- Application number
- IPC code
- Publication date or date range
- Bulletin number
- Selection of document kind code
- Selection of notice type
- Advanced Search options (search by title, applicant name, inventor name, "information about the patent", patent representative/agent, international application number, international publication number, or origin of the application)
Search results are listed in a grid, and each result includes the document number, kind code, "species code of publication," type of publication, bulletin number, date of publication, link to the Register record on the document, and links to the document in PDF and XML format.
Select the document number to view the full record, including:
- Bibliographic data (with links to PDF versions of the application and publication, when available)
- Claims and a representative image
- A table listing all publications of the document, including the section of the gazette, bulletin number, and additional data on the publication.
From the original search results list, users can also select the Register link to view the Register record for the document, which includes bibliographic data, the "date of first payment of annual fee," and a chart illustrating "the effect of the patent in the territory of the Contracting States and the Republic of Moldova."
