Our office in collaboration with the Malta Crafts Foundation , Union Intellectual Property Office - EUIPO and the European Commission organised a seminar on Geographical Indications for Crafts and Industrial Products. As from 1 December 2025, producers across the European Union and beyond can apply to register their craft and industrial products as geographical indications (GIs) under Regulation (EU) 2023/2411. To qualify for geographical indication protection, products must
• have a strong connection to their geographical origin (place, region or country)
• have a quality, reputation, or other characteristic linked to a specific place, region, or country
• include at least 1 stage of production carried out in the specified area

This seminar was an important step to create awareness amongst Maltese craftspersons through various presentations as well as a hands-on exercise and group discussion.

The Commerce Department within the Ministry for the Economy, Enterprise and Strategic Projects, together with the Malta Crafts Foundation and in collaboration with European Union Intellectual Property Office - EUIPO and the European Commission's DG GROW, is organising an information seminar for craftspersons interested in knowing about how the new Geographical Indications (GIs) for Crafts can be used by local artisan groups.

GI is a special label that shows that a product comes from a specific place and is made using local skills and traditions. Up to now, this EU label was given to food, wine, and spirits. Now, craft and industrial products are also protected under this new EU system.

Would you like to know more about GIs? Then this information session is for you. Experts from the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO), the European Commission and the Malta Crafts Foundation will be demonstrating how the GIs will work, and how Maltese artisan groups can apply for such label.
