  PATENT - the inventor`s right to use and exploit out of his thought and invention - is an economic right; i.e. it can be bought and sold. Since it is an intangible right and we have no physical possession on it. Since the inventor is the only and the first person who must benefit from his invention and prevent others from copying, the best way for protecting the inventor against competitors who wants to imitate the inventor`s invention is to register the invention in a governmental organization and give the actual inventor a PATENT. So patenting an invention - and other intangible properties - has an important role to prove property rights on it. The aim of this paper is to affiliate the inventors with patent offices, the steps of patenting, and the necessity of patenting their invention for protecting against competitors. More over, this paper aims to have a study about some patent registration systems in some countries including Iran. Manuscript profile
