Revised Version of WIPO Standard ST.26
In accordance with the Administrative Instructions under the PCT, Annex C, paragraph 5, and following the adoption of version 1.7 of WIPO Standard ST.26 by the eleventh session of the Committee on WIPO Standards (see document CWS/11/3 and paragraphs 49 and 50 of document CWS/11/27), the Director General has decided that the new version of the Standard will come into force for international applications filed on or after 1 July 2024. Sequence listings submitted after filing concerning applications filed prior to 1 July 2024 may use either version 1.6 or 1.7 of the Standard.
In practice, because the differences between versions 1.6 and 1.7 of the Standard are editorial in nature, applicants should continue to use WIPO Sequence to prepare sequence listings as it is compliant with both versions 1.6 and 1.7 of the Standard.
