Copyright law of North Korea is regulated by the Copyright Act of 2001.[1] It introduced a 50 years p.m.a. protection, and has been amended several times.[2] North Korea had no copyright law before that date.[3] North Korea has been party to the Berne Convention since 2003.[4][5] Relevant organizations include the Copyright Office of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea; Intellectual Property Administration of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea; Invention Office of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea; and the Trademark, Industrial Design and Geographical Indication Office (TIDGIO) of the DPR Korea.[6]
