Abstract

Nowadays, intellectual property rights with its unique trade value, is considered as the pulse of international economy, and increasing transactions on these properties has extended the ground for litigations in this field whose compromise would be possible by pronouncing in jurisdictions and justice. Sometimes it is necessary to perform the verdict in a country where the verdict has not been pronounced which requires recognition and enforcement of the verdict within the foreign country. The qualities of intellectual property require some particular rules and regulations on recognition and execution of foreign judicial decisions. This is why some international model documents have made uniform model regulations which appropriate to qualities of international intellectual property rights, and by developing appropriate tenets which facilitate recognition and perform the verdicts, they have tried to prepare the ground for effective support for intellectual property in the international scope. This issue, in some countries such as Iran, faces with some challenges and require being discussed and finding possible and proper solutions. The appropriate solution in this field would be reforming domestic laws by referring to convention models and international model documents, with regard to protection politics and considering national public interests.
