Plant Variety Right Holders: updates to company names and transfers of ownership in the Register

Order APA/773/2026 modifies the holder details for various Plant Variety Rights currently held in the Register of Protected Varieties. The changes involve updating company names or the transfer of ownership through assignment (Annex). This provision exhausts all administrative remedies (Art. 114 Law 39/2015).

In 3 key points

  1. Updates to company names and registration of plant variety ownership transfers, Annex (Anexo)
  2. Entry into force on the day following its publication in the BOE, dispositive part (parte dispositiva)
  3. One month deadline to file an appeal for reversal before the Minister, Art. 114 Law 39/2015 (art. 114 Ley 39/2015)

How it affects those involved

For the companies and entities listed in the Annex, the regulation legally formalises their name changes or the transfer of rights over plant varieties (such as rice, barley, strawberry, or peach). Affected parties have one month to file an appeal for reversal before the Minister or two months to appeal to the National High Court (Art. 114 Law 39/2015).
