 The Copyright Law No. 5846 of 1951 amended by Law No. 5101 on 3 December 2004 is the main legislation concerning copyright protection in Turkey. The administrative procedure for copyright formalities is implemented by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, specifically by the General Directorate of Copyright and Cinematography. However, copyright enforcement is effected by the judicial authorities.
In order the protection to be effective, the work of art should be original and include personal efforts, innovation and new arrangement and the work enjoying copyright protection should bear the characteristics and particulars of its author.
The copyright protection supplies economic and moral rights to the owners. Economic rights give the author the right to reproduce, adapt, communicate, distribute, broadcast or otherwise dispose of the work. Moral rights allow the author to represent the work to the public, give a name to the work, put his or her name on the work and prohibit modification of the work.
