On Dec. 19, 2019, the Original Grant Patent (OGP) system will launch in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR). This new system will provide patent applicants an alternate path for seeking patent protection in Hong Kong SAR. The OGP system is a parallel process. The previously available routes for filing a patent application are still available. Accordingly, starting on Dec. 19, 2019, there will be five different routes to file a patent application in Hong Kong SAR.
