Receipt of material is merely a preliminary step in the registration and/or recordation process.  It does not imply that any final determination has been made in the case, or that the material is acceptable for registration.

 

Official action on an application for copyright registration or a document for recordation can be taken only after there has been a full examination of the claim following regular Copyright Office procedures.  We are glad to discuss questions Involving copyright registration on the telephone or in person-to-person conversations.  However, all statements made during these exploratory discussions must be considered provisional, and are not binding either upon the applicant or upon the Office.

 

This receipt acknowledges delivery of the material to the Copyright Office on the date indicated.  When multiple claims are submitted by or on behalf of the same remitter, however, only one receipt will be provided.  If you are submitting multiple claims, only one title will appear on the receipt.
