U.S. Copyright Office Issues a Final Rule Amending the Process and Fee to Obtain a Certified Final Determination from the Copyright Claims Board

Issue No. 1055 - October 4, 2024


The Copyright Office has issued a final rule amending the process and fee to obtain a certified final determination from the Copyright Claims Board (CCB). The final rule modifies the current regulations to specify that parties will make such requests to the CCB, rather than using the generally applicable process to certify other Office records. The rule also lowers the fee for retrieval, copying, and certification of CCB final determinations to $15 each.

The final rule is effective immediately and is available online.
