Guide to Patent Translation in Korea

For foreign IP agents, securing a patent in South Korea requires a local partner who understands both the technology and the intricacies of the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO). The success of a patent application hinges on the precision of its translation. A minor error can alter the scope of a claim or even lead to rejection.

Pine IP Firm provides expert Korean-English patent translation and technical translation services designed for accurate and successful patent prosecution in Korea. We are not a translation agency; we are a dedicated IP law firm.

Why Expert-Led Translation is Critical for Korean Patent Applications

Standard translation services are insufficient for patent specifications. A patent document demands a translation that is not only linguistically accurate but also technically precise and legally sound according to Korean patent law.

At Pine IP Firm, every translation is handled by patent attorneys and patent engineers with advanced degrees in their respective technical fields. Our experts in electronics, software, biotechnology, chemistry, and mechanical engineering ensure that the core inventive concepts are perfectly preserved. This approach goes beyond simple technical translation; we draft the Korean application to be clear, strategic, and optimized for examination at KIPO.
