Common Application Format (CAF) and its use at the EPO

The CAF format allows an applicant needing to file an application in each Trilateral Office and soon IP5 Offices to prepare a single application in the Common Application Format, and it will be accepted by each Office.

This will provide significant savings to applicants in the filing and processing of patent applications before the IP5 Offices (EPO, JPO, KIPO, SIPO and USPTO).

The EPO's authoring tool PatXML automatically applies the CAF structure when creating applications in Word(R).
