Duration of moral rights

The rights referred to in sections 74 and 75 expire upon the performer’s death, but not before 50 years have passed since the performance if the performer has died prior to expiry of that period of time, and not prior to expiry of the period applicable to the exploitation rights under section 82. The period is to be calculated in accordance with section 69. If a work is performed by several performers together, the death of the last of the participating performers is decisive. After the performer’s death, the rights belong to his or her next of kin (section 60 (2)).
