Geranylgeranyl diphosphate diphosphatase (ES 3.1.7.5, geranylgeranyl diphosphate phosphatase) is an enzyme with systematic name geranyl-diphosphate diphosphohydrolase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geranylgeranyl diphosphate + H2O geranylgeraniol + diphosphate

This enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of plaunotol.[1]
