This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Equatorial Guinea relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Equatorial Guinea must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Equatorial Guinea 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 Equatorial Guinea, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.
Background
The Spanish colonies of Bioko and Rio Muni were united in 1926 to form the colony of Spanish Guinea. In 1959 its status was raised from "colonial" to "provincial". In 1968 Equatorial Guinea became an independent republic.
Equatorial Guinea has been a member of the Berne Convention since 26 June 1997.[1]
As of 2024 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Spanish 1889 Civil Code as the main IP law. It was prevously alleged that the Law of January 10, 1879, on Intellectual Property applied, but it has not been mentioned in the EU's IP Country Fiche, which only lists the 1963 penal code. [1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
Article 428 of the 1889 Civil Code only makes a vague statement about copyright: "The author of a literary, scientific or artistic work has the right to exploit it and dispose of it at will." [1889 Article 428] The following article states that the Law on Intellectual Property (RCL 1960, 1042) determines the people to whom that right belongs, the form of its exercise and the length of its duration. In cases not provided for or resolved by said Special Law, the general rules established in this Code on property will apply. [1889 Article 429] However, the 1960 law (1960, 1042) is actually a law on horizontal property which does not contain any copyright-related provisions.
The 1963 Penal Code had provisions on copyright, but it was repealed in 2022 by a new one.
Since Equatorial Guinea is a member of the Bangui Agreement, Part 1 Title 1 Article 5 states that any provisions contrary to the agreement will be repealed, and the copyright provisions are just a baseline[Bangui Agreement Part 1 Title 1 Article 5], we will assume that the Bangui Agreement (specifically Title 7 which is on copyright) applies.
General rules
Under the Bangui Agreement,
- Econonomic rights are protected for the author's life and 50 years after his death.[Bangui Agreement Title 7 Article 26]
- Econonomic rights of a work of joint authorship are protected for the author's life and 50 years after his death.[Bangui Agreement Title 7 Article 27]
- Anonymous and pseudonymous works are protected for 50 years after publication or 50 years after creation if it was not published within the time.[Bangui Agreement Title 7 Article 28]
