Japan Customs (JC) seize imported and exported goods that infringe IP rights. A Customs seizure in Japan is an administrative procedure and right owners do not need to submit any court decisions in order for JC to seize infringing goods. Therefore, a Customs seizure is a very efficient tool for addressing infringements.
Mr. Tomohiro Gyoda, a patent and trademark attorney well experienced in customs seizures, will give an overview of the Customs seizures in Japan. JC seize infringing goods not only based on trademark rights or copyrights but also based on patent rights or design rights. He will also compare the IP rights in terms of effectiveness, so that you or your clients can select appropriate IP rights to be used in the Customs seizure.
