PATENT COOPERATION TREATY From the INTERNATIONAL BUREAU PCT To: NOTIFICATION THAT DEMAND CONSIDERED NOT TO HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED (PCT Rule 59.3(d)) Date of mailing (day/month/year) Applicant’s or agent’s file reference IMPORTANT NOTIFICATION International application No. International filing date (day/month/year) Priority date (day/month/year) Applicant 1. The applicant is hereby notified that the International Bureau declares that the demand is considered not to have been submitted since the applicant has not furnished within the time limit referred to in the invitation (Form PCT/IB/367) the indication of the competent International Preliminary Examining Authority to which the demand should have been transmitted. 2. Consequently, the International Bureau will refund to the applicant any amount paid in respect of the demand. 3. ATTENTION Since the demand is considered not to have been submitted, it does not have the effect, in respect of some Offices, of postponing the entry into the national phase until 30 months from the priority date (or later in some Offices) (Article 39(1)) and the acts for entry into the national phase must therefore be performed within 20 months from the priority date (or later in some Offices). However, in respect of some other Offices, the time limit of 30 months (or later) may nevertheless apply. See the Annex to Form PCT/IB/301 and, for details about the applicable time limits, Office by Office, see the PCT Applicant’s Guide, Volume II, National Chapters and the WIPO Internet site.
