Overview
While copyright exists automatically once an original work is created, registration creates an official public record of ownership that strengthens your position in any dispute or licensing negotiation — particularly valuable for software, written content and creative works.
We prepare and file the copyright application with the required work samples and declarations, and follow it through examination to registration.
What's included
- Eligibility & category assessment
