The ’dos and don’ts’ when filing EU Customs Applications for Action (AFAs)Keltie moderated the EUIPO and Irish Customs webinar which focused on the ‘dos and don’ts’ when filing EU AFAs. This interactive session was well attended by Intellectual Property (‘IP’) rights holders as well as legal representatives. The aim of this session was to raise awareness and encourage IP rights holders to adopt a proactive approach by filing AFAs in order to mitigate the risk of infringing and counterfeit goods crossing borders and reduce the need for filing Ex-officio AFAs where goods have been seized but AFAs are not in place.
