The 800 pieces of trademark-infringing shoes seized by the customs cannot be sold because they need to focus on protecting well-known domestic and foreign brands and effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of intellectual property holders.

In our lives, we often encounter fake and shoddy products when purchasing some goods. After I bought it home, various quality problems arose. Because the quality of counterfeit and shoddy goods cannot be guaranteed, you will have no way to complain. Moreover, these fake and shoddy products will also have a negative impact on those brand merchants. I thought it was because the quality of these brands was not good, so I stopped buying from such brands.

Customs seized 800 items of shoes that infringed on trademarks

Law enforcement officers from Nanning Post Office and Customs seized 800 items of goods suspected of infringing brand trademark rights during the "Operation Dragon Teng 2021" operation. In order to strengthen the supervision of infringing goods, crack down on infringement of imported and exported intellectual property rights, and protect corporate intellectual property rights. Nanning Post Office and Customs launched the "Longtengxing 2021" special action for intellectual property protection. We have adopted a high-pressure crackdown on some cross-border e-commerce and mail channels that infringe on intellectual property rights. For items in some areas, they will be inspected as key objects and the latest technology will be used to strengthen the inspection. After this operation was carried out, a case was discovered that was suspected of infringing the exclusive rights of multiple brands' trademarks. The seizure of shoes with trademark infringement was the first batch of cases of intellectual property infringement products seized.

Why can’t these shoes be sold?

Because these shoes infringe upon the intellectual property rights protected by the laws and administrative regulations of the People's Republic of China, not only can these shoes not be sold, they will also be confiscated. Manufacturers who infringe trademarks will also be fined less than 30 yuan worth of goods. If this enterprise constitutes a crime, it will still be held criminally responsible. The customs imposes severe credit penalties on infringing companies to protect well-known brands to the greatest extent and prevent illegal companies from infringing on well-known brands. This action by the Customs greatly protects the interests of well-known brands. It also serves as a deterrent to some unscrupulous companies that rely on famous brands to make profits.
