In order to obtain the grant of patent in Malaysia, an application must be filed with MyIPO. To secure a filing date, the application must include:
1) the name and address of the applicant;
2) the name and address of the inventor;
3) a description of the invention, together with any necessary drawings referred to in the description;
4) at least one claim;
5) payment of the filing fees, consisting of a basic fee plus a fee for each claim in excess of 10.
If the application claims the benefit of the priority of an earlier application, the application must also include initially at least the country and filing date of the earlier application.
Additional formal requirements, that may be completed later if necessary, include:
1) an abstract;
2) the serial number of the priority application (due within 3 months of the Malaysian filing date);
3) an Appointment of Patent Agent form, duly signed by the applicant, where a registered patent agent is engaged to file the application; and
4) where the applicant is not the inventor, a statement justifying the applicant’s right to the patent (for example, by virtue of employment or assignment).
