Copyright Registration and Deposit System

The Intellectual Property of the Philippines (IPOPHL) and its Satellite Offices (IPSOs) are now accepting applications for Copyright Registration. This service is made available in compliance with the Memorandum of Agreement between IPOPHL and the National Library of the Philippines (NLP) signed last January 25, 2011.

The new Copyright Registration and Deposit System (CoRDS) was designed to make copyright registration more accesible to the general creative public. Registration applications may be submitted to the following offices:
