Rightsholders

Norwegian rightsholders have established a system of collective distribution, meaning that Kopinor distributes the vast majority of the remuneration to the rightsholders' organisations on the basis of what is copied, following a key negotiated among the various organisations. It is subsequently up to the organisations to pass the remuneration on to the rightsholders.

In this section, you can read about the distribution system, and the bilateral agreements between Kopinor and organisations of foreign rightsholders.
