On February 18, 202 3, the General Administration of Cust oms of Guang dong Prov ince issued several public anno unc ements on administrative penal ties for infr ing ement of intelle ctual property rights in ex ports by Tap ou Cust oms . Among these , it is reported that three companies have been subject to conf isc ation of goods with infr ing ing rights and have been fin ed .
Spe cific ally , in the case invol ving Hang zhou Yi qi ang Technology Co ., Ltd ., the value of the conf is cated goods amount ed to 26, 5 60 yuan , and the fine was 53 1 yuan . Simi lar ly , X ue Ni an Ya (S hen zhen) Trading Co ., Ltd . has conf is cated 20, 7 50 yuan of goods , and the fine is 4 15 yuan . In addition , F uz hou Tony E - commerce Co ., Ltd . was fin ed RM B 27 3 yuan for the amount of the conf is cated cargo amount ing to RM B 13, 68 3 yuan .
It is shown that all three of these companies have request ed Dong guan X inda International Fre ight Transport Co ., Ltd . to file export declar ations , and in total , they have been fin ed more than 6 2,000 yuan . In this way , the increased penal ties impos ed on companies involved in infr ing ement of rights symbo lize the Government ' s efforts to protect intelle ctual property rights .
In fr ing ement of intelle ctual property rights is a major problem , especially in international transactions , and products associated with trad emar ks such as " Lou is Vu itt on (LV) " and " Chan el " are particularly strict ly protected . Against this background , it can be said that it is also an important measure for consumers to protect the credi bility and value of brand s .
As in this case , ex por ters and trade - related businesses are required to veri fy the authenti city of their products . In particular , de aling with products that infr inge intelle ctual property rights not only car ries the risk of fines , but can also damage the reput ation of the company .
The strict crack down by customs is expected to continue in the future . Comp ani es are required to put in place appropriate compliance systems , and an attitude to st rive to comp ly with intelle ctual property rights is important . More over , consumers themselves will be required to increase their ability to distingu ish the authenti city of the products they purchase and to choose high - quality products in an increasing number of situations .
Thus , as the crack down on the Tap Cust oms shows , the increase in fines for infr ing ement of rights is not just a legal issue , but also has a pro found impact on businesses and consumers , a situation that requires attention . Go ing forward , a dee per understanding of the laws and regulations related to intelle ctual property rights will be a very important element in the business environment .
