Can I withdraw my patent application? How to withdraw a patent application? First of all, a written statement shall be submitted to the patent administration department of the State Council, which shall include the name, application number and application date of the invention-creation for which the patent is applied; No conditions may be attached to the withdrawal of a patent application. If the declaration on the withdrawal of the patent application is not in conformity with the provisions, the examiner shall issue a notice deemed not to have been submitted; In accordance with the provisions, the examiner shall issue a notice of conformity. The effective date of withdrawal of the patent application is the date of issuance of the notice of conformity. The published application for a patent for invention shall also be announced in the patent gazette. The applicant shall not request to withdraw the declaration of withdrawing the patent application without justifiable reasons; However, after the patent application is maliciously withdrawn by the non-actual obligee, the actual obligee (who shall submit valid legal documents to prove it) may request to cancel the declaration of withdrawing the patent application. The declaration of withdrawing the patent application was made after the patent application was ready to be published, and the application documents were published or announced as usual, but the examination procedure was terminated. After the patent administrative department in the State Council makes a good printing preparation for publishing the patent application documents, if the applicant withdraws the patent application, the patent administrative department in the State Council can still make a decision to withdraw the patent, but the patent application documents submitted by the applicant still need to be published, and the applicant's statement of withdrawing the patent will be announced in the future patent announcement. Incidentally, after the patent application is accepted by the patent administration department of the State Council, the patent applicant still has the right to modify the submitted patent documents, but the modification of the application documents for invention patents and utility models shall not exceed the scope recorded in the original specifications and claims, and the modification of the patent documents for design shall not exceed the scope shown in the original pictures or photographs.
