Tło

Great Britain took possession of Dominica in 1763. The island republic gained independence in 1978.

Dominica has been a member of the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995 and the Berne Convention since 7 August 1999.[1]

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Copyright Act 2003 (Act 5 of 2003) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Dominica.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2] The law repealed the Copyright Act Chap. 78:41 (1919), which focused on modified penalties for infringing uses, with the U.K. Copyright Act 1911 as the basis. The 2003 Act's transitional provision on the use of works: "An act done before the coming into force of this Act shall not be an infringement of copyright or rights in a performance conferred by this Act if that act would not, but for the passing of this Act, have constituted an infringement."[2003 Section 108(4)]
