What we do, and what you do
You give us the details of your work and upload a copy. We prepare the application and file it with the U.S. Copyright Office for you, within 2-3 business days of a complete order.
The application asks you to certify that the authorship and ownership facts in it are true. That certification is yours: you, not us, certify authorship and ownership, and we never certify on your behalf.
How long does registration take?
Our 2-3 business days is the time to submit your application. The Copyright Office then examines the claim on its own timetable, which the Office sets and which is typically measured in months. We do not control or speed up the examination.
Refund policy
If we haven't yet filed your registration with the Copyright Office, we offer a full refund. Once filed, refunds are not available because the government filing fee is non-refundable. If there is an issue preventing us from filing, we will contact you and offer a full refund. See the full refund policy.
