Federal Act on the Protection of Trade Marks and Indications of Source

¹If it is an­ti­cip­ated that with­hold­ing the goods may lead to a loss be­ing in­curred, the Cus­toms Ad­min­is­tra­tion may make the with­hold­ing of the goods de­pend­ent on the ap­plic­ant provid­ing them with an ac­count­ab­il­ity state­ment. As an al­tern­at­ive to this state­ment and where jus­ti­fied by cir­cum­stances, the Cus­toms Ad­min­is­tra­tion may re­quest the ap­plic­ant to provide ap­pro­pri­ate se­cur­ity.

²The ap­plic­ant is li­able for any losses in­curred from with­hold­ing the goods and from col­lect­ing the samples if pre­lim­in­ary meas­ures are not ordered or prove to be un­jus­ti­fied.
