Analysis of the Impact of Trademark Rights Violations on the Indonesian Economy

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of trademark infringement on the Indonesian
economy, using a normative juridical approach through legislative and conceptual
approaches. The data sources used are secondary data, including primary legal
materials, such as Law Number 20 of 2016 concerning Trademarks and Geographical
Indications, as well as secondary legal materials, such as journals, books, and related
research reports. Data collection techniques are carried out through literature studies
and legal document analysis. The results of the study indicate that trademark
infringement can harm the Indonesian economy in the form of lost tax revenue,
decreased competitiveness of domestic products, and losses for businesses and
consumers. The discussion identifies challenges in law enforcement and the need for
regulatory updates and strengthened cooperation between related parties to minimize
the impact of violations. This study concludes that stricter legal protection for trademark
rights and public education on the importance of choosing legitimate products can
improve Indonesia's economic climate, create a fairer market, and increase state
revenues from the tax sector and international trade.
