Hong Kong Customs conducted a five-day publicity and education campaign on intellectual property rights (IPR) protection prior to the kick-off of the FIFA World Cup 2026.
On 8 June, Hong Kong Customs arranged a media interview to introduce the interim enforcement results of the World Cup-specific anti-infringing operation “Clean Sheet”, and appealed to the public to refrain from engaging in infringing activities. On 9 June, Hong Kong Customs held a seminar with representatives of the Hong Kong Bar and Club Association and the Hong Kong Federation of Restaurants & Related Trades to explain the key provisions of the Copyright Ordinance and emphasize the importance of compliant operations. From 10 to 12 June, Customs officers visited various districts to distribute pamphlets and promote the importance of respecting IPR among merchants and members of the public.
