The Standard emphasizes the importance of assistance on protecting intellectual property rights and pre-examination service and prioritized examination service. The Standard requires all units to provide assistance services based on the needs of the public and innovative entities for intellectual property rights protection, including consultation and guidance and assistance in solving difficult cases.
