This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Mali relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons.

Background
France seized Mali in the late 19th century and made it part of French Sudan. On 20 June 1960 the country regained independence in federation with Senegal, and on 22 September 1960 became the independent Republic of Mali.
Mali has been a member of the Berne Convention since 19 March 1962, the Bangui Agreement since 30 September 1984, the World Trade Organization since 31 May 1995 and the WIPO treaty since 24 April 2002.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Law No. 08-024 of July 23, 2008, laying down the Regime of Literary and Artistic Property in the Republic of Mali as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Mali.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]

Unsure West African CFA franc used in Mali has close ties to France. French Cour de Cassation ruled in 2002 that franc is not covered by Copyright Law [3], but it is not known if it also applies to West African CFA franc.
