You must add your new plant varieties to the UK’s national lists if you want to market them. You could be prosecuted if you do not.
The national lists are maintained by the Plant Variety Rights and Seeds Office (
PVS), which is part of the Animal and Plant Health Agency (
APHA).
You’ll be asked if you want to continue marketing the variety every 10 years or your variety will be removed from the list.
