Resolutely prevent smuggling and counterfeit goods

TQO - In recent times, the authorities have made many efforts in the fight against smuggling, trade fraud, counterfeit goods, intellectual property violations, and goods origin violations. However, the situation of smuggling, trade fraud, counterfeit goods, intellectual property violations, and goods origin violations is still complicated, on a large scale, with many subjects, greatly affecting the socio-economic development, people's health, and the country's reputation and brand.

According to the report of the National Steering Committee 389, in the first months of 2025, units and localities have arrested and handled more than 34,000 cases of violations in this field; collected more than 4,897 billion VND for the State budget; prosecuted nearly 1,400 cases, more than 2,100 subjects.

At the meeting with the National Steering Committee 389, the Prime Minister affirmed that this is an issue that people are very concerned about, affecting people's health and interests. The Prime Minister directed the establishment of a special task force and launched a high-point campaign to combat, sweep, prevent, and repel smuggling, trade fraud, production, circulation of counterfeit goods, fake goods, goods of unknown origin, copyright infringement, intellectual property infringement, and origin of goods, from May 15 to June 15.

The Prime Minister also requested to launch an emulation movement to combat smuggling, trade fraud, production, circulation of counterfeit goods, fake goods, copyright infringement, intellectual property infringement; at the same time, it was noted that agencies need to have high determination, great efforts, drastic and effective actions, with focus and key points, and clearly assign 6 tasks: "Clear people, clear work, clear time, clear responsibility, clear authority, clear products" in this work.

Smuggling, trade fraud, production and circulation of counterfeit goods, fake goods, goods of unknown origin, copyright infringement, and intellectual property infringement not only affect security and order, cause budget losses, but also negatively impact many other aspects of social life, affecting people's health and psychology. Therefore, the participation of the entire political system is needed; strengthening state management at all levels and sectors is a long-term task that must be done regularly, comprehensively, and continuously.
