Counterfeit Goods Seizure Act of 2019

Counterfeit Goods Seizure Act of 2019 This bill authorizes the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to seize goods or packaging entering the United States that involve design patent infringement. Current law authorizes the CBP to seize only goods or packaging that involve copyright, trademark, or trade name infringement. The CBP may impose a fee to cover the administrative costs of recording design patents. (Currently, rights owners may record their intellectual property with the CBP to assist with the CBP's intellectual property enforcement efforts.)
