Hintergrund
Jamaica was colonized by Spain in 1509. From 1655 it was held by England and then Great Britain until 6 August 1962, when the island became independent.
Jamaica has been a member of the Berne Convention since 1 January 1994, the World Trade Organization since 9 March 1995 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 12 June 2002.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed The Copyright Act (Act No. 5 of 1993) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Jamaica.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
The 1993 act was modified by the The Copyright (Amendment) Act, 1999 and The Copyright (Amendment) Act, 13/2015.[1] The 1999 act clarified the rules for compilations, but otherwise did not affect definitions of works and durations of protection.[3] The 2015 amendment made more extensive changes, including changes to all durations of protection from 50 to 95 years in sections 10, 11 and 12.[4]
