such as C09B35/08 about azodyes (a group of molecules)
which is more than a mere bibliographic code right in the first page of the patent because this allows you to identify in databases similar and/or related patents (including those filed by other applicants) via patent families. Note: it is not unusual that a patent carries multiple IPC assignments simultaneously. As illustration see e.g. JPH0853625A (link to the freely accessible entry in the European database esp@acenet, though EPA is/was not in charge to grant a protection in Japan, vide infra).
location: This might refer to the issuing office, but the English reference string doesn't describe it this way. If you want a protection across a nation, you file your application at a national office (e.g., INPI in France, USPTO for the U.S.A.). For supranational protection, you send the application e.g. to EPO (for European member states), or WIPO (for about 80% of UN's members which actually signed the treaty). Do you refer to this as address-like tag?
