Background
Montenegro was recognized as an independent state in 1878. It became part of Yugoslavia after World War I. After the breakup of Yugoslavia, in 1992 the republics of Serbia and Montenegro formed the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, renamed the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro in 2003. Montenegro became independent on 3 June 2006.
Montenegro has been a member of the Berne Convention and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 3 June 2006 and the World Trade Organization since 29 April 2012.
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Law on Copyright and Related Rights (Official Gazette of Montenegro, Nos. 37/2011 and 53/2016) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Montenegro.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.
