This page provides an overview of copyright rules of North Korea (Democratic People's Republic of Korea) relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in North Korea must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both North Korea 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 North Korea, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.
Background
Korea was annexed by Imperial Japan in 1910. After World War II ended in 1945, Korea was divided into two zones, with the north occupied by the Soviet Union and the south occupied by the United States. In 1948, separate governments were formed in North Korea and South Korea.
North Korea has been a member of the Berne Convention since 28 April 2003.
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Copyright Law of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (as amended by Decree No. 1532 of February 1, 2006, of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly) as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of North Korea.[1] WIPO holds an English language version of the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.
A Korean language version is held on WikiSource.[3] Korea.gnu.org holds the Korean language version of the 2001 Copyright Law.
Dr. Deming Liu provides an analysis on the North Korean copyright law in a 2018 scholarly essay.
Applicability
As listed by Article 9,[1532/2006 Article 9] North Korean works eligible for copyright are:
- works of scientific treatises, novels and poems
- works of music
- works of theatrical art such as opera, drama, acrobatics and dance
- works of visual art such as film and television program
- works of fine arts such as painting, sculpture, industrial art, calligraphy and design
- works of photography
- works of graphic art such as map, chart, blueprint, sketch and model

Buildings are not specifically mentioned as applicable works. However, according to Liu (2018), "it is possible that buildings are protected as works of fine arts on the ground that they are analogous to sculpture as specifically provided for in the copyright act."
