In the US, a registration is good for the life of the author plus 70 years; there is no renewal. Registration is optional and has been since 1989.

For works created by a company employee, copyright lasts for 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation, whichever ends earlier.

Different rules apply for works copyrighted prior to 1977.
