Copyright law of Kazakhstan
In Kazakhstan, the laws on copyright offer protection for the holders of certain intellectual property rights based on the creation of a work.[2][3]
Overview
The current laws are based on a law first adopted by Kazakhstan in 1996, and last amended in 2015.[4][b] The laws largely follow the standards of the Berne Convention and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).[5]
In general, works that are eligible for protection have a copyright term that ends 70 years after the death of the author.[2]
Enforcement
There are no specialized intellectual property courts in Kazakhstan.[6] Civil cases are brought up in ordinary civil courts.[6] Cases dealing with administrative or criminal matters are addressed in administrative or criminal courts.[6]
International treaties
The Berne Convention entered into force in Kazakhstan on 12 April 1999.[7] The WIPO Copyright Treaty entered into force on 12 November 2004.[8]
