Based on the treaty between the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein on Patent Protection as well as Articles 142(1) & 149 EPC there is a unitary patent for Switzerland and Liechtenstein. As a consequence, there is no separate National Patent Register for Liechtenstein and all granted patents, both national and EP patents, are valid in both countries.

| # | FRS Data | Data provided | CH/LI - Contents |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Status | Yes | Status of patent could be one of the following:
|
| 2 | Application No. | Yes | The 8 digits EP application number with the prefix "EP" and leading zeros, if required. Example for EP00100977: EP00100977 |
| 3 | Publication No. | Yes | The 7 digits EP publication number with the prefix "EP" and leading zeros, if required. Example for EP1530928: EP1530928 |
| 4 | Proprietor | Yes | All proprietors are delivered, concatenated by " / ". Example: "Marchant, Roger E. / Qiu, Yongxing / Ruegsegger, Mark A. / Zhang, Tianhong" |
| 5 | Invalidation date | Yes | Currently, only the "Patent Expired" date is delivered, when it is in the past. The current implementation does not consider any "event based" data. Hence, only patents that have "naturally" expired may deliver the "Patent Expired" Date. Patents that have been invalidated due to any other "event" do not deliver a "Patent Expired" and will therefore not show an invalidation date. See the Quick Help Page for more information how this is relates to the displayed "Invalidation date" and "Not in force since" fields. |
| 6 | Not in force since | Yes | Only provided if patent status is "Patent not in force" |
| 7 | Renewal fees last paid | No | This information is currently not provided. |
| 8 | Record last updated | Yes | This date corresponds to the last update of the particular record. |
| 9 | SPC | No | This information is currently not provided. |
