Appellations of Origin

Our experienced team will also secure protection for you in the field of geographical indications and designations of origin. We conduct the necessary searches for registration and carry out all required procedures under applicable European and national legislation on the protection of geographical indications and designations of origin for agricultural products, foodstuffs, and craft products. We prepare all necessary documentation and handle potential disputes regarding the infringement of rights to designations of origin.

Among the most well-known designations of origin are:

Třeboňský kapr (Třeboň Carp)

Hořické trubičky (Hořice Rolls)

Žatecký chmel (Žatec Hops)

Jablonecká bižuterie (Jablonec Costume Jewelry)

Štramberské uši (Štramberk Ears)

A designation of origin is therefore the name of a region or a specific place used to identify goods originating in that territory, where the quality or characteristics of such goods are exclusively or essentially due to a particular geographical environment with its inherent natural and human factors, and where the production, processing, and preparation of the goods take place within the defined area.
