Regarding Request for Instructions on License for Dealing in Copyright (No.1 [2003] of the Copyright Bureau of Hainan Province), we hereby made the following reply concerning the relevant issues upon deliberation:
I. Dealing of copyright is in essence a legal act to transfer the copyright. According to Article 10 of the Copyright Law, a copyright owner may transfer all or part of the rights specified in Items 5) to 17) of that article. Therefore, the dealing of copyright need not be subject to the approval by the administrative department of copyright. However, the operators shall abide by the laws and regulations of the state on relevant business activities.
II. Foreign-related transfer or license to use of copyright upon other's entrustment is a foreign-related agency act concerning copyright. According to the Interim Measures for the Administration of Foreign-Related Copyright Agencies jointly promulgated by the National Copyright Administration and the State Administration for Industry and Commerce on April 15, 1996, the establishment of a foreign-related copyright agency or starting of the business of foreign-related copyright agency must be subject to the approval by the National Copyright Administration, and be registered at the administration for industry and commerce.
