What a Thai patent must show

A Thai patent protects a product, a process, or an improvement of either. The invention must be new, must not be obvious to a person skilled in that field, and must be capable of industrial application.

Discoveries, scientific theories, and business methods as such are not patentable inventions. Protection runs twenty years from the Thai filing date and is not renewable.
