Term ends no later than Feb 6, 2038 · Medium confidence
20-year base term ends Aug 7, 2037
In force on USPTO's status record and by its fee record. A terminal disclaimer on file may shorten this term, possibly to a date already past; its reference document is unresolved, so the date above is an upper bound and no earlier date is guessed.

What's changing
Feb 2038
Term ends no later than Feb 6, 2038. Maintenance fees still fall due before then

A terminal disclaimer is on file and its reference is not resolved. No cap is applied and none is guessed

The 183 days of patent term adjustment (USPTO delay) are read from the USPTO record, not recalculated by us
Open question
A terminal disclaimer is on file (approved) and its reference document is not resolved. A disclaimer would cap the term earlier than Feb 6, 2038. We will not guess the cap.

Fewer than half of the utility patents granted in 2024 in our data have been cited yet, so we show the count and do not rank on it.
How we rank
Every date shows its work: the base term, any term adjustment or extension, any disclaimer cap, and the maintenance fee record, each with a confidence tier. How this record was built
This computed term ends no later than the date shown; an unresolved terminal disclaimer may end it earlier. Related patents and pending applications may cover overlapping subject matter.
In force means the term is running and no lapse is on record. It is not a finding that the patent is valid.
