1. What is the difference between the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Market Supervision Administration?
1. The difference between the Industry and Commerce Administration and the Market Supervision Administration: The Market Supervision Administration was formed by the merger of the Industry and Commerce Administration, the Quality Supervision Bureau, the Food and Drug Administration, and the Price Bureau. The Administration for Industry and Commerce is the government department in charge of market supervision and administrative law enforcement.
2. Legal basis: Article 2 of the "Regulations on the Functional Allocation, Internal Structure and Staffing of the State Administration for Market Regulation" is an agency directly under the State Council and at the ministerial level. The brands of the National Certification and Accreditation Administration and the National Standardization Administration will be retained externally.
2. How much is the penalty for trademark infringement found by the Market Supervision Bureau?
If the Market Supervision Bureau detects trademark infringement, it is possible to impose a fine of several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan, because the specific amount of the penalty should be calculated based on the amount of illegal income, for example If the amount has reached more than 50,000 yuan, the fine can be divided by a fine of less than 5 times the illegal amount. Trademark infringement by the Industrial and Commercial Bureau will first be sentenced to pay a certain amount of economic compensation. When the industrial and commercial administrative department determines that the infringement is established, it will be ordered to immediately stop the infringement, confiscate and destroy the infringing goods and those mainly used to manufacture infringing goods, and forge registration For tools marked with trademarks, if the illegal business volume exceeds 50,000 yuan, a fine of not more than five times the illegal business volume may be imposed; if there is no illegal business volume or the illegal business volume is less than 50,000 yuan, a fine of not more than 250,000 yuan may be imposed. Those who commit more than two trademark infringements within five years or have other serious circumstances shall be severely punished. If you sell goods that are not known to infringe the exclusive rights of a registered trademark, and you can prove that you legally obtained the goods and explain the supplier, the industrial and commercial administration department will order you to stop selling them.
