Q15. What action can we take against trademark infringement?
A: Registered and unregistered trademarks are protected under the law. (Registered trademark: Trademark Act BE2534, Unregistered trademark: Penal Code Article 272-275 and Trademark Act BE2534 Article 46, Paragraph 2)
Trademark owners can suspend infringement and claim for damages. We can also use the Civil Code, Commercial Code, Consumer Protection Law, Pharmaceutical Affairs Law, Industrial Product Standard Law, and other related laws and regulations for exercising our rights. Prosecutors and trademark owners can prosecute criminal charges against infringers by bringing them directly to the court or to the police station for illegal activities. Violators will be penalized. (Trademark Law Article 107-116)
