In September 2001, the State Intellectual Protection Office of China (SIPO), Japan Patent Office (JPO) and Korean Industrial Property Office (KIPO) held the First Intellectual Property Rights Commissioners’ Meeting in Tokyo, and launched the mechanism of Trilateral Policy Dialogue among SIPO, JPO and KIPO. In 2007, the roadmap for cooperation among the three agencies was adopted during the seventh IPR Commissioners’ Meeting, which set out the medium and long-term goals for trilateral cooperation. In 2011, the roadmap for cooperation was updated at the 11th IPR Commissioners’ Meeting, and the three agencies signed a joint statement on enhancing IPR cooperation, which marked the beginning of a new stage for trilateral IPR cooperation.
2001年9月，中国国家知识产权局与日、韩特许厅在日本东京举行了第一次三局局长会谈，确立了“中日韩三国知识产权局局长政策对话会议”机制。2007年，第七次三局局长会议首次审议通过“三局合作路线图”，确定了三局未来合作的中期目标和远期目标。2011年，第十一次三局局长会议更新了合作路线图，并签署了《中日韩三局关于加强知识产权领域合作的共同声明》，标志着三国知识产权合作进入新阶段。
Since the establishment of the IPR Commissioners’ Meeting mechanism, the intellectual property agencies of the three countries have carried out effective and practical cooperation in automation development, comparative patent review studies, professional training and institutional building, which have greatly boosted their respective IPR endeavors. In the meantime, the three agencies have also explored ways for furthering cooperation with ASEAN, exchanged views on other international IPR hotspot or focal issues, and made positive contribution to IPR cooperation in Asia and beyond.
自建立知识产权局长会议机制以来，三国知识产权局在自动化建设、专利审查对比研究、人才培训、制度建设等方面开展了有效务实的合作，有力地推动了各自在知识产权领域的发展。同时，该机制还积极探讨与东盟开展合作，并就其他国际知识产权热点、焦点问题交换意见，为亚洲区域乃至国际知识产权合作做出了积极贡献。
