This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Jordan relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Jordan must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Jordan and the United States before it can be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. If there is any doubt about the copyright status of a work from Jordan, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.

Contexto

Transjordan was under Ottoman rule until World War I, then became a state under the British mandate for Palestine in 1922. On 25 May 1946 Transjordan became an independent state, renamed Jordan on 26 April 1949.

Jordan has been a member of the Berne Convention since 28 July 1999, the World Trade Organization since 11 April 2000 and the WIPO Copyright Treaty since 27 April 2004.

As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 22 of 1992 on Copyright and its Amendments up to 2005 as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Jordan. WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database. These laws were further amended by Law No. 23 of 2014.

The Jordanian copyright law repealed the Ottoman Law on Copyright as per Article 62. The Ottoman law of 1910 "required that copyright formalities be met (copyright notice, registration, and deposit), and the term was 30 years after the death of the author" (see Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Ottoman Empire).

Applicability

Jordan's copyright law covers original works of literature, art, and science, including:

^{[22/2014 Article 3]}

1. books, booklets and other written materials
2. oral works such as lectures, speeches, and sermons
3. dramatic works, dramatico-musical, and mimed works
4. musical works, whether written or not, and whether accompanied by lyrics or not
5. cinematographic, audiovisual works, and broadcasts
6. drawings, photographs, sculptures, etchings, architecture, applied and decorative arts
7. illustrations, maps, designs, plans and three-dimensional works related to geography and topographical maps
8. computer programs, whether in the source language or in the machine language

General rules

Under the Copyright Protection Law 22 of 1992, as amended up to 2005,

• An author's work is protected for 50 years after their year of death, with protection expiring on 1 January the next year.^{[22/2014 30]}
• Protection for 50 years after the year of publication, expiring on 1 January the next year, applies to cinematic and TV works, any works whose author is a corporate person, work first published after the death of the author and anonymous or pseudonymous works for which the author does not reveal their identity during the protection period.^{[22/2014 Article 31]}

• Applied arts applications are protected for 25 years after completion, with protection expiring on 1 January the next year.^{[22/2014 Article 32]}

• The meaning of the term "applied arts" is not spelled out, but is distinct from painting, photography, sculpting, architecture and lithographical works.^{[22/2014 Article 3]}

• When a work is created by several people and their individual contributions cannot be separated they are all considered owners unless agreed otherwise.^{[22/2014 Article 35.a]}
• A collective work is defined as one where a group participated in its creation under the direction of a natural or corporate person who set the general goal of the work and published it under his name, and the work of each of the participants cannot be separated and distinguished apart. The person who directed creation is considered to be author and has exclusive copyright.^{[22/2014 Article 35.c]}

Photographs

• A photograph may not be published without consent of the person it represents unless it was taken at a public event or concerns a person of public fame.^{[22/2014 Article 26]}
• In the past, photographs and applied arts were only protected for 25 years.

• Article 32 of Copyright Law No. 22 of 1992 was amended by Law No. 29 of 1999 to provide for a 25-year term of protection for photographs starting January 1st of year of completion (and not starting from the next calendar year as is the case in many countries). The term of protection for a photograph completed in December 1974 was thus calculated starting from 1 January 1974, and expired on 1 January 1999.

• Although this provision was later repealed by Law No. 78 of 2003, the repeal did not renew the copyright of photographs which had already fallen into the public domain, because Article 7 of the 1992 law explicitly disallows such retroactive protection of out-of-copyright works. Therefore a Jordanian photograph or work of applied Art that was created on or before 31 December 1974 is in the public domain in Jordan.

• In order to be hosted on Commons, all works must be in the public domain in the United States as well as in their source country. The copyright of all pre-1975 Jordanian photographs had expired in Jordan on the U.S. date of restoration (July 28, 1999). Such photographs are thus currently in the public domain in the United States.

3. If the copied banknote is bigger, it should not be less than one and a half times the size of the original banknote.
4. Copying of banknotes should be one-sided only (i.e. nothing should appear on the reverse of a copy which might give the impression that the copied banknote is a genuine one).
