Patent Cooperation Treaty(PCT)is the most important international treaty in the field of patents after the Paris Convention for the protection of industrial properties, and is another milestone in the history of the international patent system. The Treaty was signed in Washington on 19th, June, 1970 by 35 countries. It was implemented on 1st, June ,1978 and has included 148 member states by July, 2013 under the jurisdiction of the Geneva-based World Intellectual Property Organization. 
      The PCT facilitates applicants to search international patent protections for their inventions and the public to access to the wealth of technical information involved among these inventions and assists patent offices in issuing patent grants. Under an international patent application filed by the PCT, applicants can simultaneously seek protection for their inventions in most countries of the world.
