兩岸經貿關係日益頻繁,間接貿易與間接投資更趨緊密,也連帶使台商中國知識產權受侵害的問題增多,在台灣方面已制定的「兩岸人民關係條例」,其中的第74條,已規範對於大陸地區的民事仲裁判斷之承認等問題,中國方面也於1998年1月15日制定「最高法院關於人民法院認可台灣地區有關法院民事判決之承認等問題」,其中第十九條也對於台灣的仲裁判斷承認與執行有所規定。此外,2004年7月23日,中國大陸廈門中級人民法院已經出現第一個案例,依法裁定對台灣的中華民國仲裁協會,簡稱「中華仲裁協會」的裁決效力予以認可,因此,以所有目前在中國的知識產權糾紛解決方式而言,「仲裁」的方式綜合迅速、專業、靈活、秘密、公正、經濟、和諧、執行的考量,實為解決中國知識產權紛爭糾紛較佳的途徑。
With the increasingly close economic and trade relationship and more frequent indirect trade and direct investment across the Strait, more and more IP rights of Taiwan merchants are infringed upon in the Mainland. Article 74 of the Act Governing Relations Between Peoples of the Taiwan Area and the Mainland Area enacted in Taiwan has specified the recognition of the civil arbitral awards rendered in the Mainland and the Mainland, on January 15, 1998, also formulated the Regulations of the Supreme People's Court regarding the People's Courts' Recognition of the Civil Judgments Rendered by the Courts in Taiwan Region, in which Article 19 deals with the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards in Taiwan. In addition, on July 23, 2004, the Intermediary People's Court of Xiamen in the Mainland made a ruling in accordance with the law to recognize the award rendered by the Arbitration Association of the Republic of China, which set a precedent in cases of the same kind. Therefore, among the current IP right dispute solutions in the Mainland, arbitration, which has a speedy, professional, flexible, confidential, impartial, economical, harmonious and executable advantage, is the best way of settling Taiwan merchants' IP right disputes in the Mainland.
