Where to search for south Korean patents?

When browsing the site of the KIPO (south Korean intellectual property office), it’s a little hard to find where to find the Korean patents database – or, in other words, where to search for Korean patents.

Just follow our direct link to KIPRIS, the Korean patents database and enter the search term in the big search box on the middle of the page. For example, you can enter:

  • English title
  • Korean title
  • Korean registration number
  • Korean application number
  • Inventor
  • Company

etc.
