7.2 Nepal Copyright Registrar's Office (NCRO)

The Copyright Registrar's Office administers the Copyright Act 2059: the registration-and- deposit of works (facilitative, not constitutive — copyright is automatic, the registry is evidence), the recordal of assignments and licences, the certification copies, and the copyright information services. The Office works with the enforcement faces (police complaints for piracy) and the copyright-and-related rights' promotion. The honest note: the registry's thin usage (most works never registered — the automatic-right's paradox) and the piracy market's scale against the Office's small machinery.
