China has seized infringing goods worth 552 million yuan (86.06
million U.S. dollars) in the past three years, according to the
country's top customs authority.
The three-year crackdown on intellectual property rights
infringement discovered about 120 million infringing items,
according to the General Administration of Customs.
The campaign helped protect the rights of 1,065 businesses from
48 countries and regions. Among them, 3,892 batches of products
worth 176 million yuan infringed on Chinese enterprises'
IPR.
Firms with infringement records are blacklisted and monitored
while their customs clearance costs will be higher due to reduced
credit rating.
