This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Iran relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Iran must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Iran and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Iran, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Governing laws

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the 1970 Act for Protection of Authors, Composers and Artists Rights (Copyright Law) as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Iran.

The Islamic Parliament Research Center Of The Islamic Republic of Iran holds the Farsi text of this law.

WIPO holds an English translation of the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.

Ogólne zasady

According to the 1970 Law for the Protection of Authors, Composers and Artist Rights,

• Copyrightable works, such as literary, musical works, paintings, designs and decorative writings, architectural works and buildings, carpet and rug designs, sculptures and photographs are in public domain in the following cases:
  • The creator(s) died more than 50 years ago. (Reformation of article 12 - 22 August 2010)
  • The creator(s) died before 22 August 1980, for works that their copyright expired before 22 August 2010 according to the 1970 law.
    • In the case of works of joint authorship, the date of the death of the last surviving author shall be considered alone for the calculation of the time of protection.

• "Article 16. In the following cases, the author's financial rights will be valid for a period of 30 years from the date of publication or public presentation:

1. Photographic or cinematographic works.

2. In cases where the work belongs to a person of legal position."

"Financial rights" apparently includes the right to publish and the right to receive royalties.

Per U.S. Circ. 38a, the following countries are not participants in the Berne Convention or Powszechna Konwencja o Prawie Autorskim and there is no presidential proclamation restoring U.S. copyright protection to works of these countries on the basis of reciprocal treatment of the works of U.S. nationals or domiciliaries: Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Marshall Islands, Palau, Somalia, Somaliland, and South Sudan. As such, works published by citizens of these countries in these countries are usually not subject to copyright protection outside of these countries. Hence, such works may be in the public domain in most other countries worldwide. However: Works published in these countries by citizens or permanent residents of other countries that are signatories to the Berne Convention or any other treaty on copyright will still be protected in their home country and internationally as well as locally by local copyright law (if it exists). Similarly, works published outside of these countries within 30 days of publication within these countries will also usually be subject to protection in the foreign country of publication. When works are subject to copyright outside of these countries, the term of such copyright protection may exceed the term of copyright inside them. Unpublished works from these countries may be fully copyrighted. A work from one of these countries may become copyrighted in the United States under the URAA if the work's home country enters a copyright treaty or agreement with the United States and the work is still under copyright in its home country. Iran has enacted a copyright law which came into force on 12 January 1970 and communicated the official English translation to UNESCO on 20 April 1970.

Bilateral Agreements

Although Iran is not party to the conventions mentioned it should be noted that bilateral agreements may restrict usage. E.g. the German-Iranian ”Abkommen zwischen dem Deutschen Reich und dem Kaiserreich Persien über den Schutz von Erfindungspatenten, Fabrik- oder Handelsmarken, von Handelsnamen und Mustern sowie von Werken der Kunst und Literatur” of 1930 remains in force. Therein „Die Hohen Vertragschließenden Teile verpflichten sich, um die vorbezeichneten Rechte zu schützen, geeignete Maßnahmen gegen jede Verletzung dieser Rechte zu treffen.“ loosely translated into English: “The Contracting Parties agree to protect aforementioned rights and to take appropriate measures against transgressions.” Amongst these rights are those concerning art and literature („künstlerischen und literarischen Eigentums“). Thus in Germany the German level of protection needs to be applied.
