Sworn technical patent translation of invention specifications, claims, PCT/EPC applications and intellectual property litigation documents aligned with WIPO, EPO and TÜRKPATENT standards.
Patent translation is one of the strictest and least error-tolerant translation disciplines, at the intersection of technical engineering and intellectual and industrial property law. Even a minor conceptual error in a patent specification—and especially in the claims that define the scope of protection—can narrow patent protection, lead to rejection or allow competitors to copy an invention through legal loopholes.
Patent translation generally serves two application and use tracks. National and international PCT/EPC phase entries, patent registration applications, opposition files and invalidity cases before intellectual property courts submitted to official offices such as TÜRKPATENT, WIPO, the EPO and the USPTO are presented as sworn and notarised translations. Prior-art searches, patent monitoring reports, competitor patent analyses and technical assessments before licensing are prepared as confidential professional patent translations.
Our team includes engineering patent specialists and legal professionals in chemistry, biotechnology, mechanical engineering, electronics and software. We follow EPO and WIPO formatting rules for page layout, line numbering and reference signs.
Our linguists with domain-specific background work in strict compliance with international standards, statutory terminology, and custom corporate translation memories.
The certification method depends on whether your patent text is for official registration or R&D review:
An official translation stamped by a specialist translator sworn before a notary, as required by international patent offices and courts.
Specialist translation for technical research by R&D engineers and patent attorneys when official certification is not required.
Patent translations submitted to TÜRKPATENT and the EPO require a sworn translator’s stamp and strict compliance with formatting standards. We subject translations to a two-stage patent review to preserve the full scope of the claims.
Translation of independent and dependent claims that define the legal boundaries of patent protection with precision.
Detailed texts describing the technical field, prior art and implementation of the invention.
Invention abstracts, technical drawings, flowcharts and diagrams with reference signs.
Official patent files required for European patent validation and PCT national-phase entry.
Ownership transfers, exclusive or non-exclusive licensing and royalty agreements.
Forensic expert reports concerning infringement and invalidity actions before intellectual property courts.
Complete Turkish validation of EPO-registered patents before TÜRKPATENT within the statutory three-month period.
Translation of molecular structures, biopharmaceutical formulas and active-substance patents by medical and chemistry specialists.
Notarised translation of original foreign patent texts submitted to court in alleged infringement cases.
We sign a corporate non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before work begins and assign an engineer familiar with the invention’s field.
We establish terminology aligned with international patent practice without narrowing or broadening the invention’s scope of protection.
We apply the page structure, margins and line numbering required by TÜRKPATENT and the EPO.
An independent patent attorney-editor verifies the translated claims word by word against the originals.
We apply an authorised sworn translator’s stamp and deliver files ready for submission to your patent attorney or patent office.
Fees depend on the invention’s technical field, the number of specification and claim pages, WIPO/EPO formatting needs and the required certification level.
For European patent (EP) validations, we adhere to statutory filing schedules to eliminate the risk of delay.
No. We sign a legally binding non-disclosure agreement (NDA) before every patent translation. Texts are stored on secure servers closed to external networks and shared only with the sworn engineer and patent specialist assigned to the project.
Yes. We apply the line spacing, numbering every five lines, reference signs and page margins required by the EPO and TÜRKPATENT.
Legal connectors that define the scope of protection, such as “comprising,” “including” and “consisting of,” are translated in strict accordance with patent law terminology so that claim scope is not altered.
The Turkish translation of the patent specification must be submitted to TÜRKPATENT within three months of publication of the registration decision in the European Patent Bulletin. Our team works to meet this deadline.
Our patent translators hold degrees in mechanical, chemical, biomedical or electrical engineering and have at least seven years of specialisation in intellectual property law.
