LISBON AGREEMENT FOR THE PROTECTION OF APPELLATIONS OF ORIGIN AN THEIR INTERNATIONAL REGISTRATIONLisbon Agreement • December 31st, 2009
We are of the opinion that Article 1 (2) does not impose a specific form of protection of a AO. Indeed, the interpretation that PT gives to this article is the second referred to in the paragraph concerning “basis for protection in the country of origin” of Annex I: “this phrase does not impose a means by which an AO should be protected in the country of origin, nor the specific legal form of protection, as long as the geographical denomination in question meets the definition provisions of Article 2 of the Agreement”.
