eAmbrosia, the EU geographical indications register, entry EUGI00000016635. Retrieved 2026-09-04. Register entry
Jambon sec de l'Ile de Beauté is protected across the European Union as a protected geographical indication. What that means in practice is that a document exists - the product specification - which fixes the area it may be made in, the raw material it may be made from and the method that may be used, and that a name outside those bounds may not be used on a label.
A protected geographical indication requires that at least one stage of production, processing or preparation happens in the defined area, which is a lower bar than a designation of origin.
This entry is recorded in the register with the status Rejected rather than Registered. Read it as a record of an application or a withdrawal, not as a currently protected name.

Publications
The register returned no publication list for this entry. Thirteen of the 407 entries in these two classes have no detail record available from the register API; this is one of the gaps, and it is recorded on the corrections page rather than filled in.

What this page does not have
The register records that a specification exists and where it was published. It does not publish the specification text through its API, so this site does not reproduce salting times, ageing minimums or any other production parameter for this product. Those are in the filed document, reachable through the publications above.
Buying jambon sec
Not the protected designation
Nothing sold on Amazon carries the name Jambon sec de l'Ile de Beauté. What is linked below is jambon sec, the product class this designation is a variety of. It is not Jambon sec de l'Ile de Beauté and it is not covered by the specification filed under PGI-FR-02426. Everything above this line describes a legal claim; the product below makes no part of it.
The French dry ham. Jambon de Bayonne is the protected name most often seen outside France, and its specification covers the salt as well as the pig: the salt has to come from the Adour basin, which is the kind of clause that makes a designation of origin different from a quality mark.
What to read on the label. Bayonne is the protected name. Jambon sec is the category.
