FAQ
Do photos need copyright registration?
Copyright exists once a photo is taken, but the certificate is official ownership proof — your basis for complaints and claims when images are stolen for commercial use.
Can a photo set be registered together?
Photos of the same theme and series can be combined into one registration; we advise the split based on the works.
How long until I get the certificate?
After complete materials are filed, official processing time is approx. 20 business days (from acceptance); we track throughout.
Who may register photos shot for someone else?
Usually the photographer registers; for commissioned shoots with a contract, ownership follows the contract.
