PCT/ISA/208, INVITATION TO PAY ADDITIONAL FEES IN CASE OF LATER SUBMITTED SHEETS (PCT Rule 40bis.1). The International Searching Authority (ISA) has received communication from the receiving Office indicating that a missing part or correct element or part has been included in the international application under Rule 20.5(c) or 20.5bis(c), or has been incorporated by reference in accordance with Rule 20.6(b). This form is an invitation from the International Searching Authority (ISA) to the applicant to pay additional fees for a submitted international patent application that includes more pages than the initially indicated page limit. PCT Rule 40bis.1 specifies that if an international patent application contains more than 30 pages, the applicant must pay an additional fee for each sheet beyond the 30th.
