Kyrgyz patent law, like many jurisdictions, requires novelty, which means filing should occur before any public disclosure, sales, or marketing activities. The optimal timing is during product development, once the invention is sufficiently developed to describe its implementation but before market launch. For businesses operating beyond Jalal-Abad, international patent applications should be considered within 12 months of the initial Kyrgyz filing to preserve priority rights under the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
