European Commission public consultation on the new EU regime on craft and industrial geographical indications

In addition, the public consultation also intends to support the Commission in better tailoring the current and future international policy on craft and industrial geographical indications vis-à-vis non-EU countries in relation to concluded, ongoing and future international negotiations.
