Chapter I – Introduction
A revised version of this publication entered into force. |
Chapters C‑II to C‑IX set out the general procedure for the international preliminary examination under PCT Chapter II, together with guidance on particular matters where necessary. They do not provide detailed instructions on matters of internal administration.
Matters of substantive law, i.e. the requirements which a PCT application must fulfil, are dealt with in Part F, Part G and Part H.
