Analysis of the Recognition and Enforcement of foreign intellectual property judgments in the light of the special nature of these properties

The recognition and enforcement of intellectual property foreign judgments as the result of other substantive issues of conflict of laws (jurisdiction and governing law) are in these cases. Due to the increasing international trade relations, especially with respect to intellectual property rights, the number of such claims has increased, and the need to internationally recognition and enforcement of the judgments issued in this area is felt in different ways. Given the background of the issue in international documents, this issue is not long ago, and recently some non-binding legal principles have been adopted by some foreign law institutes. Iranian law is silent in this regard and only the general provisions of Iran’s civil law and the law on the enforcement of civil judjments can be invoked. The main issue of this paper is that given the specific nature of intellectual property rights, is the existing system sufficient to recognise and enforce foreign intellectual property judjments, or does it require the formulation of specific rules in this regard?
