Recital 50

(50) The added value of geographical indications is based on consumer trust. Such trust can only be well-founded if the registration of geographical indications is accompanied by effective and efficient verification and control mechanisms. Consumers should be able to expect that any geographical indication is covered by robust verification and control systems, regardless of whether the products originate in the Union or a third country.
