Registration of the Country of Origin

Registration of the Country of Origin

Country of Origin Registration (COO) is a distinct form of intellectual property enabling manufacturers to legally establish rights to a specific name for their products as per legal regulations. These rights are granted to producers from a particular region known for specific product qualities attributable to natural and / or human resources. Unlike a trademark, COO registration may involve multiple entities. The key requirement is that all COO users are situated within the same geographic region, and the unique product characteristics are determined by the region's features and remain consistent across all rights holders

About the service

Registration of the Country of Origin
Only verbal designations are registered as COO. Under certain conditions, COO can be included in a trademark, with the key requirement being the identity of the COO owner and the trademark (label). The presence of both the trademark and COO on the product (packaging, label) indicates the special characteristics of the product, undoubtedly enhancing its competitive advantages.

The federal executive authority for intellectual property (Rospatent) maintains the state register of registered and applied COO.

We provide:

  • free initial consultation;

  • preparation of documentation for accounting purposes;

  • extension of the validity period of an existing COO registration;
