Creativity deserves protection. Whether you are an author, musician, artist, photographer, filmmaker, or software developer, your original work is your identity. But in today’s digital world, copying and misuse are common. This is why Copyright Registration is so important.

In this blog, we’ll explain what copyright is, what works can be copyrighted, the process, documents required, fees, and how Trakintax makes it simple and stress-free.

Step 1: Understand Copyright Registration with Trakintax

A copyright is a legal right given to creators of original works of art, literature, music, films, photography, software, and other creative fields.

It allows you to:

• 1. Control how your work is used, published, or distributed
• 2. Earn financial benefits from your creation
• 3. Stop others from copying or misusing your work

Unlike patents or trademarks, copyright protects creative expression, not ideas or inventions.

With Trakintax, we help you understand exactly what can and cannot be copyrighted — so you can protect your work effectively.

Step 2: Know What Can Be Copyrighted with Trakintax

You can register copyright for a wide range of creative works, such as:

• 1. Literary Works: Books, manuscripts, poems, articles, software code
• 2. Artistic Works: Paintings, drawings, photographs, designs, architecture
• 3. Musical Works: Song compositions, lyrics, background scores
• 4. Cinematograph Films: Movies, documentaries, short films, music videos
• 5. Dramatic Works: Scripts, plays, choreography
• 6. Sound Recordings: Recorded songs, audio books, podcasts

With Trakintax, we guide you to the right category and ensure your application is filed correctly for your specific type of work.

Step 3: Benefits of Copyright Registration with Trakintax
