Pervari Balı is an application, not yet registered. The name of a honey from Türkiye has been filed for EU protection as a PDO, but as of 7 November 2026 it is not in the register, so it has no protection at EU level yet.
eAmbrosia register: PDO-TR-03496, identifier EUGI00000022381, application date 11 February 2026. Translation: “Balı” means “honey”. The register holds no single document, so variety, area and requirements are not given here.
Why this matters to you: only registration gives protection, so a PDO mark on a jar named Pervari Balı confirms nothing yet; judge by producer and origin.
Pervari honey is one of the earliest honey names in Türkiye: it was registered as designation of origin No. 59 on 19 August 2004, on an application of 27 May 2003, and amended in 2019 and 2024. The zone is the Pervari district of Siirt, on mountain slopes and highland pastures. The honey comes in three forms: karakovan (natural comb), comb honey and strained honey, and a commission of three people checks production once a year.
