Copyright Registration Service

Copyrights are the lifeblood of any music company, so it is imperative to ensure that they are properly protected against third party infringement. In order to be successful, it is crucial for all music businesses to be fully aware of the range of copyrights that it owns or controls. In general, copyright exists as soon as a work is created in a tangible form. However, if you wish to bring a legal action in the USA to enforce your rights, the copyrights will need to be registered with the US Copyright Registration Office.

In addition to this, music copyrights must be registered with the appropriate collecting societies. Collecting societies are responsible for licensing and administering copyright works in domestic and international markets on your behalf for specified uses and will collect and distribute income and protect your works against infringement.

We will register 10 copyrights for a fixed fee of £100 (inc. VAT) + registration fee (where applicable)
