Nearly all countries have a federal copyright law based on the Berne Convention.

  • signatories must recognize the rights of authors from other signatory countries
  • protection is automatic; registration is available in some countries, but is not required
  • with a few exceptions, works must be protected for at least the life of the author plus 50 years
  • certain "fair" uses are allowed without licensing
