This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Sri Lanka relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons. Note that any work originating in Sri Lanka must be in the public domain, or available under a free license, in both Sri Lanka 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 Sri Lanka, refer to the relevant laws for clarification.
Hintergrund
Sri Lanka was occupied by the British in 1815. The country declared independence on 4 February 1948.
Sri Lanka has been a member of the Berne Convention since 4 February 1948. The declaration of continued application to the Berne convention after the accession of the State to independence was made on 20 July 1959, applicable as of the accession of the country to independence.[1] Sri Lanka joined the World Trade Organization as of 1 January 1995.
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Intellectual Property Act (Act No. 36 of 2003) as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Sri Lanka.[2] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.
The 2003 Act repealed the Code of Intellectual Property Act, No. 52 of 1979.[36/2003 Section 208(1)]
Anwendbarkeit
Copyright covers original literary and artistic works: writings such as books, computer programs, articles, oral works such as speeches and lectures, dramas, musical works, films, works of architecture, drawings, paintings and photographs.[36/2003 Section 6] Collections and derivative works such as databases and translations are also protected.[36/2003 Section 7]
Allgemeine Regeln

- Economic and moral rights are protected during the life of the author and for 70 years from the date of his death.[36/2003 Section 13(1)]
- With a work of joint authorship, the rights are protected during the life of the last surviving author and for 70 years from the date of the death of the last surviving author.[36/2003 Section 13(2)]

Under Sri Lanka's Intellectual Property Act, No. 36 of 2003,
- Subject to the provision of subsection (4) of this section expressions of folklore shall be protected against (a) reproduction; (b) communication to the public by performance, broadcasting, distribution by cable or other means; (c) adaptation, translation and other transformation, when such expressions are made either for commercial purposes or outside their traditional or customary context.[36/2003 Section 24(1)]

Währung

Nicht OK The government works that are excepted from copyright are only "any official text of a legislative, administrative or legal nature, as well as any official translation thereof" (Intellectual Property Act, No. 36 of 2003, at Section 8B), so it is assumed that banknotes and coins are protected and not appropriate for Commons.
Panoramafreiheit
Siehe auch: Commons:Panoramafreiheit
Nicht OK The prevailing Intellectual Property Act, No. 36 of 2003 does not provide any freedom of panorama clause. The exceptions at Section 11 only deal with U.S.-style "fair use" like criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.[36/2003 Section 11]
The now-repealed Code of Intellectual Property Act, No. 52 of 1979 had a limited freedom of panorama for films and television broadcasts only, as long as the source and name of the author of the works of art and architecture "permanently located in a place where they can be viewed by the public" were mentioned in the films or television broadcasts.[52/1979 Section 13(d)]
Sri Lankan copyright law was revised 2001–2003, dropping any direct reference to anything resembling "freedom of panorama". Still the legal right of the repealed law would not be compatible to Wikimedia Commons as it was for films and television broadcasts only, excluding photographs.
Briefmarken
Siehe auch: Commons:Briefmarken
. The Intellectual Property Act No 36 of 2003 is silent on stamps, so assume copyrighted until general term of protection expires. It seems that stamps would be public domain if published before 1 January 1954, use {{PD-Sri Lanka}}.
