Counterfeiting or counterfeiting other people’s registered trademarks refers to the act of using an identical or similar trademark on the same or similar goods without the permission of the trademark registrant. Trademark infringement must be an infringement of the rights of the trademark owner. If the trademark owner gives "permission", it means that the trademark owner has given up on pursuing the perpetrator's infringement liability. Of course, the national competent authorities have the right to hold the trademark registrant administratively responsible for changing the graphics, text or combination of trademarks without authorization and expanding the scope of use.
