摘要
地理标志撤销制度的法理基础主要体现在两个层面:从实体意义上看,地理标志所依赖的自然或人文环境会发生改变;从标识意义上看,地理标志的显著性可能会退化。我国地理标志专门法保护体系中长期缺乏地理标志撤销制度,地理标志专用标志的撤销无法实现否定地理标志效力的效果,建立和完善地理标志撤销制度也是我国履行《区域全面经济伙伴关系协定》等国际条约义务的现实需求。我国将关联性丧失规定为撤销事由符合法理,但不应将原本仅适用于商标的三年不使用撤销制度照搬适用于地理标志,我国现阶段不应允许地理标志权的放弃。
The rationales for establishing the revocation system or cancelation rules for geographical indications(GIs)are primarily two-fold.First,the environment,whether natural or cultural,on which GI rights are based,is subject to change.Second,the distinctiveness of GIs may be compromised or lost for various reasons.China’s specific provisions on the protection of GIs have historically exhibited a paucity of provisions concerning the cancellation of such signs.The cancellation of official certification marks cannot effectively negate the validity of GIs.The establishment of a cancellation system for GIs is also a prerequisite for China to fulfill its obligations under international treaties,such as the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership.It is appropriate to specify the loss of linkage as a ground for cancellation.However,it is not advisable for China to adopt the three-year non-use cancellation system,which was originally applicable only to trademarks.Furthermore,it is not conducive for China to permit the relinquishment of GI rights at the current stage.
