Document background
The Trademark Cease and Desist Letter is a critical legal instrument used in Indonesia when a trademark owner discovers unauthorized use of their protected mark. This document, governed by Indonesian trademark law (Law No. 20 of 2016) and related regulations, serves as the first formal step in enforcing trademark rights before initiating litigation. It is typically used when there is clear evidence of trademark infringement and the owner wishes to resolve the matter without immediate court intervention. The letter must comply with Indonesian legal requirements and typically includes detailed information about the protected trademark, evidence of infringement, specific demands for cessation, and a timeline for compliance. This document is particularly important in Indonesia's growing business environment, where trademark protection has become increasingly crucial for both domestic and international businesses.
