Sagacious Research Publishes a Paper on Patent Research Off-shoring and US Export Control Regulations

Sagacious Research has published a paper on Patent Research Off-shoring to bust the export control myths. The paper has been authored by Arpit Chhabra, Director Custom Research at Sagacious Research. The paper aims at answering questions related to export control regulations that apply while off-shoring patent research outside the United States to low cost destinations like India.

The paper clearly describes that off-shoring of patent research is definitely legal and is governed by certain export control regulations like any other business. Further, paper highlights that Off-shoring of patent research projects that require analysis of “Publically Available” technologies is allowed without any authorization from any government body in the USA.

Paper further emphasizes that although, off-shoring of projects that require use of undisclosed or proprietary technologies of the USA may require authorization from the DOC or DOS-DTC depending on the export classification assessment of the technology involved, however, in most of the cases, the authorization for export is not required as the technologies involved are free from export regulations. Only those technologies require licenses which are classified under CCL or USML. Technologies not classified under CCL or USML do not require any license for export (off-shoring).

“Entire idea about writing this paper was to clear the apprehensions held by many US attorneys and inventors about off-shoring of patent services to cost-effective destinations like India. Through this paper, we want to provide a clear picture about the export control regulations applicable to Patent Research Off-shoring Business.” says Arpit Chhabra, Director Custom Research at Sagacious Research.
