尼加拉瓜作为第136个缔约方加入经修订的京都议定书(RKC)

By Guy José Bendaña-Guerrero & Asociados

随着尼加拉瓜的加入,RKC 目前由 136 个缔约方组成。在南美洲、北美、中美洲和加勒比地区的33个WCO成员国中,尼加拉瓜将成为RKC的第10个缔约方。 RKC 将于 2024 年 5 月 15 日对尼加拉瓜生效。

加入RKC将为尼加拉瓜提供更简单、更高效、更有效的海关程序的路线图,指导该国不断改进并确保安全和保障。

WCO一直鼓励尚未加入的成员国加入RKC,强调其作为一项国际条约的作用,提供一套全面的海关程序,以促进合法的国际贸易,同时实现有效的海关管制,包括对于海关收入和社会的保护。

RKC 提倡简化和统一海关程序的关键原则,例如可预测性、透明度、正当程序、最大限度地利用信息技术和现代海关技术(例如风险管理、抵达前处理和清关后审核)。

The firm has its origins in the law firm Henry Caldera & Henry Caldera-Pallais, founded in 1907 by Mr. Henry Caldera. That same year of 1907, through the efforts of Mr. Caldera, Nicaragua had its first Trademark Law. In the late 1930’s, Mr. Caldera’s oldest son, Dr. Henry Caldera-Pallais, after studying law in Nicaragua, attended the University of Michigan, where he graduated as a Registered U.S. Patent Attorney. Dr. Caldera-Pallais in 1964 was a founding member of the Interamerican Association of Intellectual Property (ASIPI), the first regional intellectual property organization in the Americas. The firm continued to grow during the administration of Dr. Franklin Caldera, son of Dr. Caldera-Pallais, who obtained his doctoral degree in law from the Universidad Centroamericana in 1973.

Since 1985 the current partners, Dr. Guy José Bendaña Guerrero and Mrs. Blanca Aragón de Bendaña, took over the management of the firm. Dr. Bendaña Guerrero, Director of the firm, has distinguished himself as one of the most respected authorities in Central America in the field of intellectual property and law in general, being the author of several books such as “Course of Industrial Property Law”, “Study of the new Laws of Industrial Property” and “New Study of Contracts “, among others. Mrs. Aragón de Bendaña has served as the firm’s general manager and, thanks to her excellent management, the firm has been in constant growth, with a highly qualified staff committed to excellence.
