European Patent Office as Searching and Examining Authority The European Patent Office (EPO) may act as the International Searching Authority (ISA) for an international application filed with the United States Receiving Office or the International Bureau (IB) as Receiving Office where at least one of the applicants is either a national or resident of the United States of America. However, the EPO is no longer a competent ISA, within the meaning of PCT Article 16(3), for international applications filed by U.S. residents or nationals on or after 01 March 2002 in the USPTO or IB as a Receiving Office, and where the application contains one or more claims directed to the field of business methods. For the definition of what the EPO considers to be precluded subject matter in the field of business methods, applicants should see the "Notice from the President of the European Patent Office", dated 26 November 2001, and which was published as Annex A in the "Notice Concerning EPO Competence to Act as PCT Authority" in the Official Gazette at 1255 O.G. 878, on February 19, 2002. The European Patent Office may act as the International Preliminary Examining Authority (IPEA) for an international application filed in the United States Receiving Office or the International Bureau as Receiving Office where at least one of the applicants is either a national or resident of the United States of America, provided that the European Patent Office acted as the International Searching Authority. However, the EPO is no longer a competent IPEA, within the meaning of PCT Article 32(3), for international applications filed by U.S. residents or nationals in the USPTO or IB as a Receiving Office where the corresponding demand is filed with the EPO on or after 01 March 2002, and where the application contains one or more claims directed to the fields of business methods.
