Heraldic Law

Heraldic Law governs the use, registration, and protection of coats of arms and heraldic symbols. It ensures that each symbol is unique and associated with a specific individual, family, or organization, preventing unauthorized use or duplication. The law also defines rules for designing, modifying, and inheriting heraldic insignia, maintaining historical and cultural integrity. In many countries, heraldic authorities oversee registration to secure legal recognition, and unauthorized use can lead to legal disputes or penalties. Overall, heraldic law preserves the tradition and significance of heraldic symbols as emblems of identity and heritage.
