A patent is an exclusive right granted by the state to an inventor for the results of his invention in the field of technology, who for a certain period of time implements the invention himself or gives his consent to another party to implement it. Almost all areas of life have used advanced technology, both technology originating from within the country and technology originating from abroad. For this reason, it is necessary to have regulations in the field of patents which regulate: Terms and definitions relating to patents, terms, procedures, time periods, forms of protection, rights and obligations of patent holders, licenses, expiration of licenses, provisions regarding royalties, and others. This is used as a reference in carrying out patent-related activities in Indonesia so that it can provide legal protection for inventors. Protection is needed as: A form of appreciation, recognition, guarantee based on a sense of justice and worthiness of all abilities and efforts, so that they are motivated to continue working for a better future for the nation and state. Even though Indonesia already has laws and regulations in the field of patents and has ratified international agreements regarding patents, problems still occur. The occurrence of these problems is influenced by various factors, including: those related to legal structure, legal substance and legal culture.
