商标产品平行进口法律问题分析

Legal analysis of parallel importation of trademark products

商标产品平行进口问题在西方国家已经经过100多年的探讨,而在我国研究刚刚起步。随着我国加入世界贸易组织以及对外贸易的进一步发展,商标产品平行进口案件的发生已呈上升趋势,而实践中对平行进口是否应予准许、是否构成侵权等争议很大,因为我国目前没有商标产品平行进口的法律来处理这类案件。商标的地域性原则与权利用尽问题、商标产品平行进口各方利益主体平衡问题、平行进口与公平竞争的关系问题是目前理论界争论最多的问题。通过对这些问题的分析,找到了解决问题的方法,并提出了立法建议。

The question of parallel inportation of trademark products has just started to be studied in China although it has been discussed in western countries for more than 100 years.With China's entry into WTO and the further development of foreign trade,there are more and mone cases on parallel importation of trademark products and much controversy on the admisison and tort of it since no relative law can deal with such cases in China now.Controversy on such cases focuses on three questions:the contradiction in principle of right exhaustion and territorial right,the balance among bodies of interest,the relationship between parellel importation and fair competition.Through analysis of these questions,solution to the problem is sought and suggestion legislature is proposed.
