What is GI Renewal?

GI Renewal involves extending the period of protection for a registered geographical indication. GIs typically have a renewable registration period, after which renewal is required to maintain the protection.

Importance of GI Renewal

  1. Continued Protection: Ensures ongoing legal protection and exclusivity for the GI.
  2. Market Presence: Maintains the product’s market advantage and consumer trust.
  3. Legal Compliance: Keeps the registration valid and in compliance with legal requirements.

Steps for GI Renewal

Review Renewal Requirements

  • Renewal Period: Determine the timeframe for renewal, which is usually specified in the GI registration regulations.
  • Renewal Fee: Check the fee structure and payment deadlines for the renewal application.

Prepare Renewal Application

        Gather and prepare the necessary documentation, which may include:

  • Renewal Application Form: Completed form indicating the request for renewal.
  • Proof of Continued Use: Evidence that the GI is still in use and meets the requirements.
  • Fee Payment: Payment of the renewal fee.

Submit Renewal Application

Submit the completed renewal application form and supporting documents to the relevant intellectual property office. Ensure that the application is filed within the specified renewal period to avoid lapsing.

Receive Confirmation

Upon successful review and payment, the intellectual property office will   issue a renewal certificate confirming the continued protection of the GI.
