This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Guyana relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Guyana must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Guyana and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Guyana, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Background

Guyana was colonized by the Dutch, then came under British control in the late 18th century. It was governed as British Guiana until it gained independence as Guyana on 26 May 1966.

Guyana has been a member of the Berne Convention since 25 October 1994 and the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the British Copyright Act 1956 (Cap. 74) as the main IP law enacted by the legislature. WIPO holds the text of this act in their WIPO Lex database. WIPO also lists the The Copyright (British Guiana) Order 1966 (Order No. 79 of 1966) (1966), which extends and modifies the 1956 act. WIPO holds the text of this order in their WIPO Lex database. The changes in the 1966 order generally do not affect definitions of protected works or durations of protection.
