Recital 44

Regulation (EU) 2023/2411 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 October 2023 on the protection of geographical indications for craft and industrial products and amending Regulations (EU) 2017/1001 and (EU) 2019/1753 (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(44) Country-code top-level domain name registries established in the Union offering alternative dispute resolution procedures to settle disputes relating to the registration of domain names should ensure that such procedures also cover geographical indications. Following an appropriate alternative dispute resolution procedure or judicial procedure, it should be possible for country-code top-level domain name registries established in the Union to revoke or transfer a domain name registered under a country-code top-level domain to the relevant producer group, where the domain name registration contravenes the protection of a geographical indication, where the domain name is being used in bad faith, or where the domain name has been registered by its holder without that holder having a right to or a legitimate interest in the geographical indication.
