How can I register an idea?

You can’t protect an idea, however you can protect an invention. Of course, the idea is the first step in that creation process, but until you create something tangible, there is no protection for you there.

Depending on your invention, you will likely be considering one of the following patents:

Utility Patent: This type of patent focuses on function. It is appropriate to file for this patent if you have created a brand new product that has never been invented before.

In some instances, your invention may be eligible for both types of patents. To best determine where you should go from here, you should consult a patent attorney.
