PUBLIC COMMUNICATION
In order to use the performers’ works recorded on phonograms or in audiovisual format in the ambient (hotels, restaurants, bars, transportation etc.) or lucrative environments (discos, shows, various events etc.), it is necessary to obtain a license (authorisation) from CREDIDAM.
The procedure pertaining to the issuance of the authorisation by CREDIDAM consists of the following stages:
- The statement (1 counterpart), along with the agreement (2 counterparts) will be filled in and signed only by the company’s DIRECTOR and will be submitted in original to the headquarters of CREDIDAM, at 34, C.A. Rosetti Street, 2nd District, Bucharest, post code 020015.
- Further to the recording/processing of the user’s data in the database of CREDIDAM, a proforma invoice will be issued (for the period requested in the agreement), along with one counterpart of the agreement between the user and CREDIDAM.
- After the payment of the proforma invoice, a fiscal invoice will be issued in relation to the settled payment, together with the Authorisation/Non-Exclusive License for Public Communication, for the activities and areas indicated in the annex to the statement, respectively the public communication of the phonograms published for commercial purposes or of the reproductions thereof, the public communication of the artistic performances from the audiovisual field and/or the public communication for lucrative purposes.
