Utility Model

A short descriptive title; a working name is fine.

Utility models (a faster, cheaper "petty patent") exist only in certain countries — China, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and a few others. Pick where you want protection and we will confirm it is available. Country Guides

Utility models generally protect mechanical and structural improvements, not software or methods. This helps us confirm eligibility.

A short description helps us check fit and scope.

Most utility-model countries require novelty, so disclosure timing matters.

Drawings or sketches help us scope. You can also send these later.
