The issue regarding China:
Despite your efforts, enforcing IP rights can still be difficult.
Evidence Collection: Foreign companies often face significant challenges in gathering evidence of infringement within China.
Procedural Hurdles: Differences in legal culture and procedural requirements can create uncertainty. The system can be slow, and overcoming an unfavorable trademark rejection has become more difficult.
Inconsistent Application: Rapid changes in IP law can create gaps between statutory intent and practical implementation, leading to inconsistent application of standards by administrative bodies.
Countermeasure Risks: In the context of cross-border disputes, China's Anti-Foreign Sanctions Law and related provisions can expose foreign entities to countermeasures, including restrictions on entering China or the sealing of assets, including IP.
