Intellectual property border enforcement requires a structured notice with ownership proof, infringement grounds, consignment details, and product identification material.

Border enforcement of intellectual property rights under the Intellectual Property Rights (Imported Goods) Enforcement Rules, 2007 requires a prescribed notice format for seeking suspension of release of allegedly infringing imported goods. The applicant must provide identity and contact particulars, details of any authorised representative, proof of ownership of a valid intellectual property right, grounds for suspension, and, for a specific consignment, consignment details with prima facie evidence of infringement. The format also requires a description of the goods, customs tariff heading, a genuine product sample, model, or photograph, the customs location concerned, and a signed declaration of truth and genuineness.
