You may recall that I posted about the draft of the guidelines in July 2023 (https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/cn-samr-anti-monopoly-guidelines-standard-essential-patents-toby-mak/?trackingId=MsHx2YHtR%2F%2BvxsX%2FwRsOWQ%3D%3D ).

The below are based on the original Chinese text, its machine English translation, and the Chinese comparison of the final version (Nov 2024) with the draft (July 2023).

Unless otherwise specified, concerns raised in my previous post in July 2023 still apply, i.e. these remain unchanged in the final November 2024 version.
