Background
Venezuela was colonized by Spain in 1522. In 1811 it became one of the first Spanish-American territories to declare independence, at first as a department of the federal republic of Gran Colombia. Venezuela gained full independence in 1830.
Venezuela has been a member of the Universal Copyright Convention since 30 September 1966, the Berne Convention since 30 December 1982 and the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the 1993 Law on Copyright as the main IP law enacted by the legislature of Venezuela.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2]
