China Customs nab nearly 2,000 infringement cases worth 230 m. yuan in 1st three quarters
December 5, 2007China Customs intercepted 1,914 infringement cases worth 230 million yuan (31 million U.S. dollars) in the first three quarters of the year, and 90% of the importing and exporting infringement cases were cracked down on China Customs’ own initiative.
During the first three quarters, China Customs organized a series of activities in the main regions, channels and air and sea routes in an effort to crack down on importing and exporting infringements. The campaigns effectively stopped the trend of importing and exporting infringing commodities. For instance, in order to avoid the inspection of customs, some infringing parties changed their usual channels and began exporting infringing goods through mails, express, etc.
China Customs also improved the contact and cooperation with the obligees, jointly organizing activities such as seminars on legislation, trainings of law enforcement and information notification. For example, after talks with American Nick Co., China Customs learnt that there were a great number of fake “Nike” (owned by Nike Co.) goods in the Chinese market. They subsequently strengthened monitoring of the related exporting goods, and finally cracked down upon more than 190 cases of fake Nike products in 2005, nearly 17% of the total infringing cases in the year.
