Why Register Your Copyright?

Copyright is created when a creator has written, designed or drawn something in some physical form, however in the event of a copyright dispute, proving exactly when copyright was established and by whom can be extremely difficult. It is generally accepted that the best way to establish a verifiable date of creation is to register your work with a third party such as The Script Vault, who can corroborate the registration date and the name of the person who registered the work.

The Script Vault will store your script for either 10 or 25 years, giving you peace of mind that in the event of a copyright dispute they will be on hand to provide evidence of the registration and, if necessary, produce a copy of the stored script in a court of law. Copyright Registration can prove invaluable in the event of copyright theft or plagiarism.

Our Services

Copyright Registration of a single item for a period of 10 years starts from just £28. A one year/ten item subscription is just £50, so if you register 10 items with us it means you’ll only be paying £5 per registration and the copyright registration period is still 10 years for each item. And if you’re a very prolific writer you can buy a one year/unlimited item subscription for just £10 more which means you can register as many items as you want and the copyright registration period gets extended to 25 years.
