# Commission Regulation (EU) No 1121/2010 of 2 December 2010 entering a designation in the register of protected designations of origin and protected geographical indications [Edam Holland (PGI)], Division 4.8: Labelling

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

‘Edam Holland’ is a European Union Protected Geographical Indication (PGI).
This indication must be displayed in a prominent position on all whole cheeses on the label applied to the flat side of the cheese and/or on the band around the cheese. This is not compulsory if the cheese is sold in pre-cut and pre-packaged form as described in section 4.5. In that case, ‘Edam Holland’ must be displayed on the packaging.
A clear distinguishing mark must be displayed on the packaging to enable consumers to identify Edam Holland on the shelves. Through naming, the use of a separate identity (a logo is being developed) and the EU PGI symbol, it must be made clear to consumers that Edam Holland is a different product from other Edam cheeses.
