<h1>Customs Rules Enforce IPR Protection: Registration, Suspension, and Infringement Handling for Imported Goods Under 2007 Guidelines.</h1> The Intellectual Property Rights (Imported Goods) Enforcement Rules, 2007, issued by the Central Board of Excise & Customs, outline procedures for preventing the import of goods infringing intellectual property rights. These rules mandate the registration of notices by right holders with Customs, detailing the process for suspension of suspect goods. The rules cover infringements related to trademarks, patents, copyrights, and geographical indications. Customs officers are instructed to exercise caution in identifying infringements, particularly concerning patents and designs. The circular emphasizes the need for an IPR Cell in each Custom House to handle registrations and potential infringements, ensuring timely and systematic enforcement of these rules.
