List Of Countries' Copyright Length
This is a list of countries and their copyright term, the length of their standard copyright, in years. When a work's copyright term ends, the work passes into the public domain.
The list also includes entries for non-country entities: the European Union, Berne Convention, and the Universal Copyright Convention, which set minimum terms for their member states or signatories. The Agreement on Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS), though not included, requires a copyright length of at least 50 years after death.
