Intellectual Property Rights

http://apli.org/

Asia Pacific Legal Institute. Provides information about Taiwan's intellectual property rights.

http://www.iipa.com/ INTERNATIONAL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ALLIANCE - 2001 SPECIAL 301 REPORT
http://www.tipo.gov.tw/ch/ Taiwan Intellectual Property Office

To prepare for its WTO accession in 2002, Taiwan had amended its Patent Law and Copyright Law in November 2001.  The amendments extended the term of protection from 18 years to 20 years for some patents and defined computer software as literary works with longer protection (for the life of the author plus 50 years). The changes brought Taiwan's IPR laws into closer compliance with the WTO Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS).  To crackdown on mass CD pirating, Taiwan also passed the Optical Media Law in October 2001.  The law provided Taiwan authorities with a legal framework to manage CD manufacturing plants through licensing and the use of Source Identification (SID) codes in production.  Offenders can receive prison terms up to three years and be fined up to NT$6 million (US$176,000).
 
To develop Taiwan as a knowledge-based economy and to attempt to have Taiwan removed from the U.S. Special 301 Priority Watch List, the Taiwan government placed great emphasis on IPR protection and enforcement.  Following its 2002 "IPR Action Plan", the Executive Yuan adopted a fresh IPR Action Plan for 2003-2005.  One important measure within this "three-year IPR Action Plan" framework is to establish in January 2003 an Integrated Enforcement Task Force (IETF) consisting of 220 IP police officers.  The task force will devote itself to enforcement of IP rights and elimination of piracy.  Other enforcement measures include increasing the reward (by ten times to NTD10 million (US$ 0.29 million) to IPR informants for counterfeiting seizures and setting up an anti-pirating CD export task force to strengthen inspection on the border. 
 
With a better legal framework for IPR protection, Taiwan's Legislature passed amendments to the Patent and Trademark Laws in January and April of 2003, respectively.  The principal changes of the aforementioned amendments were to abrogate the administrative and legal procedures for opposing patent applications and to add voice and 3-D shares as elements eligible for trademark.  In light of the rapid development of Internet technology and the digital-content economy, the Legislative Yuan in June passed the amendment of the Copyright Law.  The amendment codifies temporary reproduction as a reproduction; offers right holders public transmission and distribution rights, and electronic rights management information.  The amendment also enlarges the scope of public crime for infringement.  The Taiwan government and legislature are drafting proposals to amend the Optical Disc Law.
 
In general, although Taiwan is moving toward improving protection of IPR, rights owners complain of slow progress in judicial cases and poor protection for trade dress properties, such as unregistered marks, packing configurations, and outward appearance features.
