Practice Focus

OEM contracts should allocate ownership of improvements, tooling IP, and residual inventory marked with protected designs. Under the PRC Civil Code, contractual relationships are governed by rules on formation, validity, performance, assignment, termination, and liability for breach. Jurisdiction may lie where the defendant is domiciled or where the contract was performed, subject to exclusive jurisdiction rules for certain real estate and company disputes. When disputes emerge, preserving WeChat chats, email threads, stamped contracts, and payment records often determines outcomes more than oral recollection alone. Working Method 💼 Enforcement options include civil litigation for injunctions and damages, administrative routes in some contexts, and customs IP measures for recorded rights. Force majeure and change of circumstances doctrines under Articles 180 and 533 may excuse non-performance or permit renegotiation when objective conditions make performance impossible or obviously unfair. Parties typically attempt negotiation or mediation first. Local administrative practice in Sanmenxia can affect filing logistics even when national statutes are uniform. Public exhibitions, online listings, and sales can affect novelty. Freedom-to-operate reviews for export products reduce seizure and injunction risk in destination markets and help Chinese plants understand which features may need design-arounds. Invalidation risks from competitors require prior art monitoring and defensive publication strategies where appropriate. Licensing and cross-licensing need quality and audit clauses that work in Chinese operations. Article 577 provides that a party that fails to perform, or performs inconsistently with the agreement, shall bear liability through continued performance, remedial measures, or damages. Civil procedure in China follows the Civil Procedure Law. The objective is practical risk reduction and clear procedural options under current Chinese law.
