Document background
The Synchronization License is a crucial document in Indonesia's media and entertainment landscape, essential for any entity seeking to legally combine musical works with visual content. This agreement, governed by Indonesian law including the Copyright Law No. 28 of 2014 and Government Regulation No. 56 of 2021, provides the necessary legal framework for using copyrighted music in various audiovisual productions. The document is typically required when creating content such as films, television shows, advertisements, video games, or digital media where music needs to be synchronized with visual elements. It outlines specific rights granted, territorial limitations, duration of use, fee structures, and compliance requirements under Indonesian law, while protecting both the rights holders' interests and providing clear usage parameters for content creators.
