Did you know that both compensate rights holders? But they're not the same.

🔹 ROYALTIES
Payment for the authorized use of a protected work.

🔹 REMUNERATION
Compensation recognized by law for certain uses of performances or sound recordings.

📌 One stems from permission. The other stems from legal entitlement.

Understanding the distinction helps creators, performers, producers, businesses, and the public navigate copyright and related rights with greater confidence.

Empowering Visual Artists Through Intellectual Property!

Did you know that creators can access free learning resources to better understand and protect their intellectual property rights?

Creators Learn Intellectual Property (CLIP) is a free initiative of WIPO for Creators that helps creators strengthen their knowledge of intellectual property (IP), make informed decisions about their creative works, and gain recognition and fair compensation for their creations. Initially launched for the music sector, CLIP has now expanded to include visual arts, with plans to support even more creative disciplines in the future.

Whether you're a painter, illustrator, photographer, sculptor, or other visual artist, CLIP offers practical guidance on how to protect, manage, and monetize your creative works.

Learn more and start your CLIP journey here: https://goclip.org/en/visualarts

Understand the visual arts industry, your rights as a creator and how you get credited and paid for your work.

Marami ang nag-aakala na kailangan munang ma-publish ang isang akda bago ito ma-register sa Copyright Registry.

❌ Hindi totoo!

Pwede mong ipa-register ang iyong original na akda kahit hindi pa ito nailalathala o naipapalabas sa publiko. Kung published na ang iyong work, ilalagay mo lamang sa application ang date at country of first publication.

💡 Tandaan: Ang copyright registration ay hindi lang para sa mga published works.

Protektahan ang iyong likha habang maaga.

Behind every song are years of sleepless nights, experience, and passion, from people making a living through their craft.

Music piracy is more than just an illegal download. Every unauthorized download takes something away from the people who created the music we love; It affects the livelihood of the creators, producers, musicians, and other creative professionals.

This National Anti-Piracy Month, let’s stand with creators by respecting copyright and their works. Respect for creativity should not be a once-a-year reminder; it should be a daily practice.

Respect the Music. Respect the Creator. Respect Copyright.

Register your creative works at www.ipophil.gov.ph/deposit.

To report suspected intellectual property (IP) violations, contact the Intellectual Property Rights Enforcement Office (IEO) through [email protected] or 0966 769 1448.

Translations open doors by connecting cultures, sharing stories, and bridging ideas across languages. Behind every great translation is a translator whose skill and creativity deserve recognition: their translations are original works protected by their own copyright.

We also honor the rights of original authors who allow their works to be translated - for translation always requires proper permission and respect.

Today, let's celebrate our translators: the unsung heroes who let stories be understood, no matter the language.
