Intellectual Property Organization, the Washington Patent Cooperation Treaty,
and the Bern Copyright Convention. As a member of the EU, Greece has
harmonized its legislation with EU rules and regulations. The WTO-TRIPS
agreement has been incorporated into Greek legislation as of February 28, 1995
(Law 2290/95).
Greece's legal framework for copyright protection is contained in Law 2121 of
1993 on copyrights and Law 2328 of 1995 on media. Implementation and
enforcement of these provisions however, has been deficient and intellectual
property problems have long plagued Greece, resulting in its ranking on the
Special 301 Watch List since 1994. However, in the last year, the Greek
Government has made significant progress in protecting intellectual property
rights and fighting piracy. In September 2002, Greece became the first EU
country to implement the European Copyright Directive. As a result of
these efforts, in this year's annual report by the U.S. Trade Representative on
the protection of copyrights throughout the world, Greece was removed from the
Special 301 Watch List. The report says that tough laws are on the books
and the government is making a concerted effort to work with industry to
continue the positive trend in general intellectual property protection.
In fact, it notes that the Business Software Alliance awarded the Greek
government its "Cyber Champion Award" last year in recognition of the
government's anti-piracy efforts. However, the report notes that one
problem remains in enforcement, as some judges do not appear to consider
intellectual property theft a serious crime and therefore impose minimal
penalties on perpetrators. Also, the report says, more must be done to
increase public awareness on the effects of purchasing pirated music, film and
software and counterfeit apparel.
Another problem is the absence of protection of trademarked products in the
apparel sector. Although Greek trademark legislation is fully harmonized
with that of the EU, claims by U.S. companies of counterfeiting are still
increasing. U.S. companies report that smuggling of counterfeit apparel
from Asia for distribution throughout Europe continues, but businessmen also
report that Greek customs officials have raised their awareness of the problem.
Intellectual property appears to be adequately protected in the field of
patents. Patents are available for all areas of technology.
Compulsory licensing is not used. The law protects patents and trade
secrets for a period of twenty years. There is a potential problem
concerning the protection of test data relating to non-patented products.
Violations of trade secrets and semiconductor chip layout design are not
problems in Greece.
