Decline in seizures of counterfeit goods, Dubai Customs says

The threat of counterfeit products smuggled into Dubai is on a downward trend thanks to Dubai Government’s active measures to thwart all attempts to smuggle such goods.

Dubai Customs on Tuesday marked World Intellectual Property Day with good news about the drop in the number of seizures of intellectual property rights (IPR) infringing goods in the first quarter of 2016, which only saw 54 seizures made at a value of Dh34.4 million compared to 2015, with 135 seizures worth around Dh16.8 million.
