The Department of Intellectual Property works to prevent counterfeit product sales online

13 Sept 11:56 Key points summarised by AI

Thailand's Department of Intellectual Property (DIP) is actively collaborating with major online shopping platforms, such as Lazada, to combat and prevent the sale of counterfeit goods.
The initiative empowers consumers to report pirated products, a need highlighted by a victim's experience of purchasing a fake item and the platform initially denying responsibility.
Online shopping websites are enhancing seller screening processes and continuously monitoring purchasing activities to ensure product authenticity and educate sellers on prohibited items.
Buyers can directly report suspected pirated or counterfeit products sold online by contacting the Department of Intellectual Property hotline at 1368.
