Regarding Your China Design Patent
A Chinese design patent registration provides zero protection in the United States. U.S. Customs and Amazon's IP enforcement only recognize U.S. patents. Your clearance analysis must focus on whether your product's appearance is substantially similar to any of the active U.S. design patents identified above.
Infringement Risk: Design patent infringement occurs when an "ordinary observer" would find your product's appearance substantially similar to a patented design. This requires side-by-side visual comparison of your specific product against each active patent's claimed design figures.
