Предистория
Algeria was a French colony from the mid-19th century until 1962, when it became an independent republic following the March 1962 Evian agreements.
Algeria has been a member of the Berne Convention since 19 April 1998 and the WIPO treaty since 31 January 2014, as well as a signatory to various other international treaties.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Ordinance No. 03-05 of 19 Joumada El Oula 1424 corresponding to July 19, 2003 on Copyright and Related Rights as the main copyright law.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2] The Wayback Machine holds the French language version.[3]
The 2003 law repealed the Order No. 97-10 dated 27 Shawwal 1417 corresponding to March 6, 1997 related to Copyrights and Neighboring Rights, which in turn repealed the Order No. 73-14 of April 3, 1973 corresponding to copyright. Article 160 of the 1997 law and Article 161 of the 2003 (current) law specify non-retroactivity of the protection terms for works that already fell into public domain.
Durations
Works published in Algeria before 1997 are subject to the 1973 copyright law: Ordonnance n° 73-14 du 3 avril 1973 relative au droit d'auteur (General rule: 25 year protection, see the chapter VII about duration).
Works published between 1997 and 2003 are subject to the 1997 copyright law: Ordonnance n° 10 du 6 mars 1997 relative aux droits d'auteur et aux droits voisins, non retroactive. (General rule: 50 year protection).
Works published from 2003 onwards, as well as those not in the public domain at the time the 2003 copyright law came into effect, are subject to the 2003 copyright law.
According to Ordinance No. 03-05 of 19 Joumada El Oula 1424 corresponding to July 19, 2003,

- The protection period for a collective, pseudonymous, anonymous, posthumous or audiovisual work is 50 years from the end of the Gregorian year during which the work has been legally published for the first time. If the work has not been published within 50 years of its creation, the 50-year protection period is effective from the end of the Gregorian year during which it was publicly circulated. If the work has not been publicly circulated within 50 years from its creation, the 50-year protection period is effective from the end of the Gregorian year during which the work was created.[Law of 2003, Art.56–58, 60]

This does not apply to the banknotes and coins issued by the Banque de l'Algérie, the banking authority during French rule (until 1958), because it was not an official body of the current Algerian state.
