The applicant shall submit a request for substantive examination within 30 months from the filing date at the latest, and may submit a request for expedited substantive examination within 18 months from the filing date. After substantive examination of the patent application, OSIM makes a decision of grant or rejection, and notifies the applicant within one month, and the decision will be announced after the one-month appeal period.
