Section A use of the pct system A.8.2 PCT national phase entries by office and country of origin Table A.8.2 shows the breakdown of NPE data for the top 20 offices by the top 10 countries of origin in order to capture the “flow of patents” between countries via the PCT system. US applicants accounted for the largest share of nonresident NPEs received by all reported offices, except for the German office which received the largest number of its NPEs from Japan. The share of resident NPEs was substantial at several offices. This was particularly so for Japanese applicants which accounted for the largest share of NPEs at the JPO, with 15,897 filings representing 31% of total JPO NPEs in 2011. The German office, the JPO and the USPTO are the third-most preferred offices of destination for their respective resident applicants. SIPO is the second-most preferred office of destination for Chinese applicants. A PCT applicant seeking patent protection in a European Patent Convention (EPC) member state (see list of PCT Contracting States in the annex) can choose to enter the national phase at the national office (provided the “national route” is not closed) or at the EPO. As a result, the number of NPEs at some European national patent offices is lower than would otherwise be expected in view of the size of that particular country’s economy.

Section A use of the pct system A.8.3 PCT national phase entries by office and middle-income country of origin Table A.8.3 shows NPE data for the top 20 offices broken down by the top 10 middle-income countries of origin. The data shown in Table A.8.3 include only NPEs from middle-income countries of origin. Chinese applicants accounted for the majority of middle-income NPEs at 11 of the 20 reported offices. For example, Chinese applications accounted for 70% and 63% of all middle-income NPEs at the JPO (954 NPEs) and the USPTO (3,455 NPEs), respectively. However, Russian applicants initiated the largest share of NPEs at the Eurasian Patent Organization as well as at the office of Ukraine.
