The method used in this study is a juridical-empirical approach with a qualitative analysis aimed at determining the legal protection efforts and constraints regarding the potential geographical indication of nutmeg as a prominent commodity in South Aceh Regency. The research findings indicate the lack of concrete efforts from the local government to provide legal protection for the potential geographical indication of nutmeg. The challenges faced include suboptimal coordination among relevant departments, the absence of support from the local government towards the community’s protection of geographical indications as a requirement for proposing geographical indications, and the weak internal coordination among the community in their efforts to seek legal protection for the geographical indication of nutmeg.
