True, thanks. WIPO has made sure differences between national patent laws, if any, are minor.

What the Law requires for an inventive step?

a patent shall not be granted for an invention where a person ordinarily skilled in the art could have been easily make the invention based on the prior art at the time of filing. Thus, the law requires that a patentable invention should involve such an inventive step that the skilled person could not have made the invention based on the prior art at the time of filing.
