Abstract

This study aimed to know the scope of the unique legal protection enjoyed by geographical indications in the Jordanian legislation. The descriptive approach was used to describe the scope of this protection, and the results showed that geographical indications can acquire a high characteristic and be commercial assets of value, which exposes them to abuse, imitation or forgery in a way that requires the Jordanian legislature to provide protection for them. It was also found that this protection was contained in several laws that work to stop the attack on the geographical indication and to compensate for the damage caused.
