This is not examined in any way but gives you an internationally recognised priority date. Within one year you must submit a full patent application based on this material or lose the priority date. The closer you come to covering the points in Mahendra's answer the better the chance that the material will be useful. | Cost of doing the above may be minimal - eg about $US45 in New Zealand. Value depends on you. | |

Different countries have different laws. Second what? Some things are patentable, some aren't. Third, what have you looked at so far? We are not going to re-write the information that the internet holds. Please be specific about what you have found so far and what about it confuses you. | |
