Validation of a European patent
The European patent becomes effective in Hungary if the patentee files the patent claims in Hungarian and in case of European patents in German or French granted by the EPO a translation of any other text included in the granted European patent into either English or Hungarian to the Hungarian Intellectual Property Office and pays the fee determined by special legal regulation within the prescribed time after the publication of the patent in the European Patent Gazette.
The translation of the European patent's text has to follow certain formal requirements laid down by special legal regulation.
The Hungarian Intellectual Property Office makes available to the public the translation of the European patent's text.
