As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Act No. LXXVI of 1999 on Copyright (consolidated text of July 16, 2015) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Hungary.[1] WIPO holds the Hungarian text of this law in their WIPO Lex database, with an autotranslate facility.[2] The Hungarian National Legislative Library holds the consolidated text as of February 2019.

Durations

Under the Act No. LXXVI of 1999, updated to 2019,

  • Copyright is protected in the author's life and for 70 years after his death.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(1)]
  • The 70-year period of protection is calculated from 1 January of the year following the death of the author, in the case of joint works, from 1 January of the year following the death of the last deceased partner.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(2)]
  • If the identity of the author cannot be established, the term of protection is 70 years from the first day of the year following the first publication of the work.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(3)]
  • In the case of several partially published works, the year of the first publication shall be calculated in parts.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(4)]
  • The term of protection of a jointly created work is 70 years from 1 January of the year following the first publication of the work.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(5)]
  • The term of protection for cinematographic works is calculated from 1 January of the year following the death of the last deceased person, whether or not they are co-authors: the director of the film, the screenwriter, the author of the dialogue and the author of music composed for the film production.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(6)]
  • If the term of protection is not calculated from 1 January of the year following the death of the author or the last deceased co-author, and the work is not made public within 70 years from the first day of the year following its creation, the work longer qualifies for copyright protection.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.31(7)]
  • Legal protection applies when a publisher lawfully discloses a previously unpublished work whose copyright has expired. The duration of this protection is 25 years from 1 January of the year following the first publication.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.32]

Currency

OK. The Hungarian National Bank (MNB) issued an exemplary decree, which permits reproductions of all forms of Hungarian banknotes and coins in a way which they cannot be misidentified as original, with the most important factor being the usage of the same material as the original. This essentially lifts the counterfeiting restriction from digital copies, without limits (since anyone in possession of a banknote could create a high-quality digital reproduction at ease).

[4][5][6][7]

Moreover, they have released a license to allow free usage (unless restricted by the aforementioned anti-counterfeiting decree) of the banknotes they possess direct copyright.

[8]

This covers most banknotes created since 1983. For all other notes and coins you should still have to locate the author and ask specifically for license, which is not impossible, but tough. In most cases the Magyar Nemzeti Bank is the copyright holder.

The {{HU banknote}} template should be used on recent banknotes. The copyright status for designs of coins should be researched individually. Out-of-copyright banknotes and coins can use {{PD-old}}.

Freedom of panorama

OK. {{FoP-Hungary}} Under the Act No. LXXVI of 1999, updated to 2019, if a fine art, architectural or applied art creation is erected with a permanent character outdoors in a public place, a view of it may be made and used without the authorization of the author and paying remuneration to them.[LXXVI/1999-2019 Art.68(1)] Please note that – as determined in this deletion request – "fine art, architectural or applied art" does not include photographs, maps and text (e.g. content of informational boards) and thus FOP does not apply to them.

Stamps

Katso myös: Commons:Stamps

Stamps of Hungary are probably not in the public domain. Although Hungarian copyright law denies copyright protection for "means of state direction" (Act No. LXXVI. of 1999], I.4), the recommendation by the Council of Copyright Experts rejects a similar arguments for banknotes and suggests that "means of state direction" applies to specific, "official" uses of a work.

[9][10]

The same logic is presumed to apply to stamps as well. Assume copyrighted until general term of protection expires.
