National Treatment of Music Creators

For 75 years a key principle in global trade has been that a nation should provide foreign entities the same benefits and protections as it would its own citizens. In music, that means whatever rights regime a country gives to creators, the principle of what is known as National Treatment should apply those rights to all, regardless of nationality.

For too long several countries in Europe have ignored this principle and discriminated against foreign music creators based solely on their country of origin.
