Law on Geographical Indications Amended


Ukraine adopted amendments to the Law on Geographical Indications on September 20, 2019. The Amendments entered into force on January 1, 2020. The changes bring the Ukrainian legislation in line with EU Regulation No. 1151/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council on quality schemes for agricultural products and foodstuffs.

The main changes concern the redefinition of key definitions such as "geographical indication" and "designation of origin", the clarification of the eligibility criteria for applying for GI registration and the amendment of the opposition procedure and the rules for cancellation of registered GIs.
