An amendment shall be considered a Union amendment if it: includes a change in the name or any part of the name of the geographical indication registered under this Regulation; consists of a change of the legal name or the category of the spirit drink; risks voiding the given quality, reputation or other characteristic of the spirit drink that is essentially attributable to its geographical origin; or entails further restrictions on the marketing of the product.
