Do foreign applicants receive patent official-fee reductions?+
No. All patent prices on this international website are quoted on the standard non-reduced official-fee basis for foreign applicants.
Can China IP Pro guarantee registration or grant?+

Who signs the engagement?+
The written proposal identifies the appropriate China or Hong Kong entity according to the service and agreed payment route.
Can we send an unpublished invention now?+
Send only the filing number, deadline and high-level topic first. Full unpublished details should wait for conflict and confidentiality arrangements.
Can you work with our U.S. law firm?+
Yes. Roles, reporting, conflicts, billing and client contact are agreed before substantive work.
