Validation of European patents in Spain: guarantee protection for your inventions in the Spanish market

Once a European patent has been granted, the next crucial step is validation to ensure its protection in Spain. PADIMA validates your European patent in Spain, ensuring that your inventions enjoy the necessary legal protection to prevent copying and exploit your technology exclusively in the Spanish market.

Patent validation in Spain: an essential step to protect your industrial property

Why is it necessary to validate a European patent in Spain?

Once the European Patent Office (EPO) grants a European Patent, it does not automatically take effect in the designated countries. For the patent to be effective and enforceable in Spain, a validation process must be carried out before the Spanish Patent and Trade Mark Office (OEPM). This process involves submitting a translation of the patent into Spanish and complying with other formal requirements.
