Enforce a defined timeline of copyright registration
Reform IDF331
DescriptionBefore: The copyright registration process in Pakistan was slow and inefficient, often taking over a year and causing uncertainty for applicants due to excessive objections and procedural delays.
After: The process is now streamlined with defined timelines—15–30 days for unopposed cases and up to 60 days for opposed cases. It has ensured faster, more transparent, and predictable copyright registration.
