Within the framework of the signed Association Agreement with the EU, Ukraine has undertaken many obligations to harmonize its legislation with European norms, which gives our country the opportunity to import its products into the countries of the European Union almost without restrictions. One of these requirements is the prohibition of domestic manufacturers to use protected in Europe geographical indications of the origin of goods to indicate their products. The problems related to preparation for registration and protection of geographical indications of food, wines, flavored wine products, alcoholic beverages as intellectual property are considered. Nowadays Ukrainian producers are not too quick to change some names of domestic goods, which are borrowed by European geographical names and under the Association Agreement with the EU should not be used both in the foreign and domestic market.
