<p>I've been able to request Chinese DAS codes before issue, but I
believe Chinese counsel has to request the CNIPA to deposit the
application and give a DAS code. IIRC, it costs money to do that.</p>
<p>Here's a good article: <a href="https://www.gbaiplawyer.com/das-code-in-china/">China DAS
Code: Access Electronic Priority Documents \u2013 GBA IP LAWYER</a></p>

Sorry if this is the wrong listserv. On my phone with limited

<div>Is anyone else having trouble getting a DAS access code for a
Chinese utility application? </div>
<div>I\u2019m being told that the code isn\u2019t made available until the
patent issues, which doesn\u2019t sound right. It\u2019s coming to me
through non-practitioners, which may be the problem of course.
I\u2019m not (yet anyway) in touch directly with Chinese patent
counsel. </div>
<div>But finding a work around is proving difficult. Any
suggestions?</div>

<p>What you are doing is smart. It probably gets you some
extra US patent term.</p>
<p>You didn't say which RO the PCT application was filed
in. Maybe the RO is a depositing office in the DAS
system.</p>
