S. 2677
Expands information sharing on suspected trade intellectual property violations
Lets United States Customs and Border Protection ask more parties for help and share more details, including images of packing and shipping containers, about goods suspected of violating trademark or copyright laws.
- It could share information and images of packing materials and shipping containers
- Customs could ask any appropriate party with an interest in imported goods for help
- It could provide nonpublic details from online marketplaces, freight forwarders, and similar entities
- Changes the trigger for asking for help from suspecting to having a reasonable suspicion
