This page provides an overview of copyright rules of the Bailiwick of Guernsey relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in the Bailiwick of Guernsey must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Guernsey 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 Guernsey, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Guernsey is a "territory for which the United Kingdom is responsible" rather than a sovereign state.[1] It is not a member of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).[2] Copyright laws are defined by the Copyright (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Ordinance, 2005.[3] The extent of law covers the whole Bailiwick, and therefore covers Guernsey, Sark, and Alderney (and for the avoidance of doubt, Herm, Jethou, Brecqhou, Burhou and any other territories of the Bailiwick).
