Under the PPH pilot programme at the EPO, a PPH request filed with one of the other IP5 offices, i.e. JPO, USPTO, SIPO and KIPO, or with one of the offices with which the EPO has launched bilateral PPH pilot programmes, i.e. CIPO (Canada), ILPO (Israel), IMPI (Mexico), IPOS (Singapore), IPA (Australia), SIC (Colombia), ROSPATENT (Russia), IPOPHL (Philippines), MyIPO (Malaysia) and EAPO (Eurasian Patent Office) can also be based on an IPER established by the EPO as IPEA (see point 250).
Irrespective of the PPH pilot programme any applicant may request accelerated examination under the PACE programme in the procedure before the EPO as elected Office at any time. For more information on the PACE programme reference is made to chapter E (see points 445 ff).
