泰国知识产权侵权纠纷解决制度及启示

The Relief System of Intellectual Property Infringement in Thailand and Its Inspiration to China

泰国于1995年加入WTO后,进一步完善了知识产权法律制度。为有效解决知识产权侵权问题,泰国建立了知识产权及国际贸易法院,审理知识产权侵权纠纷民事和刑事一审案件。该法院在法官制度、审理程序、证据制度、诉讼保全、救济方法等方面与普通法院有很多不同点。为了快速解决知识产权侵权纠纷,减轻纠纷当事人的经济负担,泰国知识产权局建立了知识产权仲裁和调解制度,依据专门的知识产权仲裁和调解规则处理纠纷。泰国知识产权侵权纠纷处理制度对我国具有一定的启示意义,我国在完善知识产权保护机制方面可借鉴泰国的一些成功经验。

Since joining the WTO in 1995, Thailand has further perfected the legal system of intellectual property rights. In order to effectively solve infringement of intellectual property rights, Thailand established the intellectual property rights and the international trade court, hearing about intellectual property cases of first instance. The court’s lawsuit system is different from other courts, such as the judge system, the trial procedure, evidence system, litigation preservation, relief method, etc. In addition, Thailand’s intellectual property office established intellectual property arbitration and mediation system, based on the knowledge property rights arbitration and dispute mediation rule processing. Thailand intellectual property infringement dispute processing system has certain enlightenment significance to our country; we can draw lessons from some successful experiences of Thailand in China in order to improve the system of intellectual property protection.
