A Geographical Indication is a name or sign indicating a product that is identified with a locality, area, region, or country by a certain attribute, reputation, or other characteristics. Geographical indications are classified into two types: origin names and geographical marks. In order to apply for a traditional product name, it is necessary to fill in the application form with the same name, prepare various documents, and pay attention to some issues.

     The rights arising from the trademark registration are valid only in the country or countries where the registration was made. As a consequence, the fact that exporting companies have not registered their trademarks in other countries poses a significant risk. Even whether it’s a country where you export or merely attend the fair, if your trademark is registered on behalf of another company, you run the danger of having your products confiscated at customs. In short, exporting under an unregistered trademark can be extremely harmful to your business.

     Trademarks, geographical indications, designs, patents, utility models, and traditional product names are all protected in Turkey under the terms of Industrial Property Law No. 6769, which went into effect on January 10, 2017. The “Capital Qualification” for the companies is reflected in the rights granted to them by trademark, patent, and design registration paperwork. The value of trademarks is even bigger than the monetary value of firms in today’s economy. Therefore, the rights that these documents grant to their owners, as well as the protection they provide in the event of counterfeiting, are proof of the penalties for counterfeiting acts.
