Can I file a provisional patent application outside of the United States?
Yes and no. When you file a provisional patent application with Nolo Now, you can physically be outside of the U.S., but you must supply a mailing address within the United States — you cannot use a foreign mailing address. Nolo will include your mailing address on your application and the USPTO will use that address to contact you if it needs to correspond with you about your PPA. Nolo will also use this address to ship the Nolo book(s) that you receive when you purchase your provisional patent application from Nolo Now.
