This bill lets U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) share more information when it reasonably suspects a product violates intellectual property rights, like trademarks or copyrights. CBP could share certain nonpublic details about the merchandise that come from online marketplaces, express shippers, freight forwarders, and other companies involved in selling or importing goods. It also allows sharing with other parties who have a stake in the goods, if CBP’s Commissioner thinks it’s appropriate .

The goal is to help stop fake or stolen‑IP goods by getting useful data to the right people faster. This could make it easier for rights holders and others to act quickly when suspicious products show up at the border .
