摘　　要：中国在标准必要专利案件中尝试使用禁诉令措施,这引起美国和欧盟等的密切关注。禁诉令在国内作为行为保全措施而得到适用,与《TRIPS协定》规定的临时措施相契合。欧盟通过WTO争端解决机制就知识产权执法措施问题向中国提请磋商,其核心争点为禁诉令是否作为常态化的法律措施在中国得到普遍适用。分析禁诉令在《TRIPS协定》下的合规性,需要回到《维也纳条约法公约》规定的条约法解释通则,准确解释《TRIPS协定》条款文本的含义。依该协定文本,中国在个案中适用禁诉令措施没有影响专利权的行使,也未导致执法程序滥用,无法得出必然违反《TRIPS协定》的结论。如果在磋商过程中相关纠纷没有顺利得到解决,可依据《TRIPS协定》,从措施识别的准确性、临时措施的正当性等多个方面来维护中方的合法正当权益。China’s attempt to use anti-suit injunction measures in patent disputes related to standard essential patents has attracted close attention from trading partners such as the United States and the European Union. The anti-suit injunctions are applied in China as an act preservation measure, which is consistent with the interim measures stipulated in the TRIPS Agreement. Through the WTO dispute settlement mechanism, the European Union submitted to WTO Dispute Settlement Body for consultation on China’s intellectual property law enforcement measures. The core issue of the dispute is whether the application of the anti-suit injunction is generally applicable in China as a legal rule. To analyze the compliance of anti-suit injunction measures under the TRIPS Agreement, we need to return to the general principles of treaty interpretation stipulated in the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties and accurately explain the meaning of the text of the provisions of the TRIPS Agreement. According to the TRIPS Agreement, the relevant measures in China have no impact on the exercise of patent rights, and will not cause the abuse of enforcement procedure. If the dispute is not successfully resolved in the consultation process, China can safeguard China’s legitimate rights and interests by invoking the TRIPS Agreement, in terms of the accuracy of measure identification and the legitimacy of interim measures.
