PREVENT ILLICIT TRADE, COUNTERFEITING AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY THEFT

Our work to prevent illicit trade, counterfeiting and intellectual property theft.

Over the next two years, the duty free and travel retail industry will work together to ensure our anti-illicit trade credentials remain strong and well understood across all our categories. We will continue to support the anti-illicit trade enforcement community, and assist governments in countering this growing international threat. Illicit trade affects all sectors of the duty free industry, from customer perception, to industry validity and economic progression. To continue combating this, regulators and governments must demonstrate a greater deal of trust in the industry. As duty free sales support transport infrastructure, lower flight costs, and enhance the overall consumer experience, this trust is vital for the continued recovery of international travel.
