中文摘要:

      我国加入WTO之后,随着国际贸易范围的不断扩大,与商标权有关的商标产品的平行进口现象日趋增加。理论上对商标产品平行进口行为的性质一直争论不休;实践中,相关国际公约没有明确具体规定,我国有关立法也处于空白。本文在分析商标权的独立性和地域性的基础上,结合主要国家或地区的相关立法与实践,提出商标产品的平行进口行为,对于进口国的商标权人具有明显的侵权性。我国应在商标法中明确规定禁止商标产品的平行进口,以严格保护商标权人的合法权益;同时还应有例外规定,以适应全球贸易自由化的趋势。

英文摘要:

      After China's accession to WTO,with the expansion of the scope of international trade,the parallel importation of trademark-related products has been increasing.In theory,there has been endless debates on the nature of parallel importation of trademark-related products.In practice,there are no specific provisions on this subject in relevant international conventions.China's national legislation is almost in blank.Based on the analysis of independence and locality of trademark rights,combined with the experiences of the legislation and the enforcement in other major countries and regions,this article asserts that the parallel importation of trademark-related products is an infringement on the bearer of trademark right in the import country.Therefore, China should prohibit the parallel importation of trademark products clearly in the Trademark Law to protect the legitimate interests of the bearer of trademark right.Meanwhile,there should also be necessary exceptions in order to adapt to the liberalization of world trade.
