Background
Panama was colonized by Spain in the 16th century. It broke away from Spain in 1821 and joined the Republic of Gran Colombia, then in 1831 the Republic of Colombia. Panama seceded from Colombia in 1903.
Panama has been a member of the Berne Convention since 8 June 1996, the World Trade Organization since 6 September 1997 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 6 March 2002.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Law No. 64 of October 10, 2012, on Copyright and Neighboring Rights as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Panama.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
General rules
Under the former Law No. 15 of August 8, 1994 on Copyright and Neighboring Rights and Enacting Other Provisions, a work first published in Panama was in the public domain if it met one of the following criteria:
- It was an anonymous work or pseudonymous work and 50 years had passed since the date of its publication (or creation, whatever date is the latest)
- It was a collective or audiovisual work, and 50 years had passed since the date of its publication (or creation, whatever date is the latest)
- It was another kind of work, and 50 years had passed since the year of death of the author (or last-surviving author)
Under the Law No. 64 of October 10, 2012,
- Economic rights last for the author's life and 70 years after his death.[64/2012 Article 59]
- With a collaborative work, the term is counted from the death of the last surviving co-author.[64/2012 Article 59]
- With anonymous and pseudonymous works, the term is 70 years from the year of its publication.[64/2012 Article 60]
- With collective works, computer programs and audiovisual works, economic rights expire 70 years after first publication, or if that does not happen after completion.[64/2012 Article 61]
- The terms defined above are calculated from the first of January of the year following the death of the author or, as appropriate, the disclosure, publication or completion of the work.[64/2012 Article 63]
- Patrimonial rights over works, artistic performances, phonographic productions or broadcasts already protected by Law 15 of 8 August 1994, shall enjoy the longer terms of protection established by this Law.[64/2012 Article 193]
The economic rights for works created by authors who died before Law 15 of 8 August 1994 came into force will have the duration of 80 years as provided for in the Administrative Code of 1917.[64/2012 Article 194]
