Protection Starts at the Border

at Al Nawras Intellectual Property

Customs points play an important role in protecting trademarks and intellectual property rights from counterfeit or infringing goods, particularly products entering from international markets. We help rights holders take the appropriate steps before customs authorities, prepare the necessary documents and information, and follow cases that require intervention to protect registered trademarks and other rights. We integrate customs enforcement into a wider protection strategy, extending action against counterfeiting beyond the marketplace to the points where products enter it.
