Haiti was ruled by the Spanish as part of Hispaniola from 1492 to 1625, then by the French as Saint-Domingue from 1625 to 1804, when it became independent. The country was occupied by the United States from 1915 to 1934.

Haiti has been a member of the Universal Copyright Convention since 16 September 1955, the Berne Convention since 11 January 1996 and the World Trade Organization since 30 January 1996.[1]

WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
