Claims Global merges data from different data sources including:

Bibliographic data from DocDB, the EPO master documentation database covering data from over 90 countries.
Legal status from Inpadoc, a database produced by the EPO and covering over 40 international patent authorities.

More details about DocDB and Inpadoc coverage can be found here.

Please note that some patent authorities don't publish PCT national phase applications and others have changed their policies regarding PCT publications over the years. We work to add these filings whenever possible, but some gaps may appear.
