1994年4月达成的《与贸易有关的知识产权协定》(简称TRIPS协定)是《乌拉喀什建立世界贸易组织协定》的一个附件。该协定将知识产权的保护问题纳入世界贸易的总体框架之下,从而使知识产权与商品贸易、服务贸易并列成为WTO的三大支柱。在TRIPS协定制定以前,世界贸易组织(简称WTO)的前身关税与贸易总协定(简称GATT)的工作重点为降低关税和调节贸易争端,对知识产权的保护力度不够。在达成TRIPS协定以后,知识产权从此进入世界贸易框架,知识产权国际保护制度覆盖到国际经济和贸易的各个领域。在驰名商标保护方面,TRIPS协定对《巴黎公约》保护驰名商标的规定进行了重要补充,其第16条第二、三款将对驰名商标的保护延伸到服务商标,将对已经注册的驰名商标的保护扩大到不相类似的商品上。
The Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement) reached in April 1994 is an annex to the Agreement Establishing the World Trade Organization (WTO) in Uruguay. The agreement brings the issue of the protection of intellectual property under the overall framework of world trade so that intellectual property, commodity trade and trade in services become the three pillars of the WTO. Prior to the enactment of the TRIPS Agreement, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) of the World Trade Organization (WTO) focused on reducing tariffs and regulating trade disputes, and did not protect intellectual property rights enough. After the TRIPS Agreement was reached, intellectual property rights have since entered the framework of world trade and the international protection of intellectual property rights system has covered all aspects of international economy and trade. As for the protection of well-known trademarks, the TRIPS Agreement supplements the provisions of the Paris Convention on the protection of well-known trademarks. Article 16, paragraphs 2 and 3 thereof, extends the protection of well-known marks to service marks and marks the registration of well-known marks The protection extends to dissimilar commodities.
