Similar to patent, a utility innovation is a statutory monopoly granted for a limited time in exchange for an inventor providing sufficient teaching of his or her. However, the requirements for acquiring a utility innovation are less stringent than for patents. While the requirement of "novelty" is always to be met, that of "inventive step" or "non-obviousness" is not required.
Patent/Utility Innovation protection is territorial. The protection is limited to the country in which the application is filed. A granted patent is valid for twenty (20) years from the date of application and renewable every year within the twenty years. A granted utility innovation is valid for ten (10) + five (5) + five (5) years from the date of filing subject to use and renewable every year within the twenty years.
