This page provides an overview of copyright rules of Suriname relevant to uploading works into Wikimedia Commons.

Suriname come under Dutch rule in the late 17th century. In 1954 Suriname became one of the constituent countries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands. On 25 November 1975, the country of Suriname became an independent state.

Suriname has been a member of the Berne Convention since 23 February 1977 and the World Trade Organization since 1 January 1995.[1]

As of 2019, the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed the Law of March 22, 1913, laying down New Rules on Copyright (as amended up to Decree S.B No. 23 of 1981) as the main copyright law enacted by the legislature of Suriname.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2] The law replaced Royal Decree of 11 May 1883 No. 39 (GB No. 11), but Article 11 of that decree remained in force for works and translations published before the 1913 law entered into force.[23/1981 Article 44]

The law was amended once more by act of 17 April 2015.[3] The consolidated copyright act is available on the Dutch Wikisource.
