Online piracy is on the rise

Pirated copies, as you probably already know, exist in most product categories. Everything from clothes and bags to food packaging, medicines, electronics, toys, mobile phones, and makeup. The more attractive your product is – or the stronger your brand is – the greater the financial gain from pirating it.

The trade in pirate copies has greatly increased. A contributing factor is products being purchased online. Often the counterfeit goods come from China, but other countries also manufacture a lot of counterfeits.

It is of vital importance to protect your goods so they retain their commercial value. This way you won’t lose the goodwill you’ve built around your company and its products.

How does a customs declaration work?

We submit a customs notification to the Swedish Customs Authority. If the Swedish Customs Authority makes contact regarding goods that are suspected to be counterfeit we’ll contact you to discuss which legal possibilities are available to deal with it. A common procedure is for the importer and the right-holder to agree that the goods be destroyed.

A customs notification lasts for one year. We extend it for you annually so you don't have to worry about it.
