Madrid Agreement

Japanese: マドリード協定 - マドリードきょうてい
Madrid Agreement
It is the abbreviation for the Madrid Agreement for the Suppression of False or Misleading Indications of Origin, which was established in Madrid in 1891, and is a special agreement of the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property. Initially, only a few European countries such as France and Spain were parties to the treaty, but now more than 30 countries are members, including Japan, which joined in 1953. This treaty prohibits the use of false or misleading indications of origin, allows for the seizure of imports, and prohibits unfair competition in international trade.
