You can declare your audiovisual works and rights with AGICOA Europe Brussels at any time.
Keep in mind however that to be processed in the first distribution, works and rights must be declared by 31 December of the broadcasting year for which the royalties were collected.
If you have not declared your works and rights by 31 December of the broadcasting year for which the royalties were collected, you will still be entitled to payment of royalties as long as you have made the declaration within a deadline of three years following 31 December of the broadcasting year for which the royalties were collected. Royalties will be lost if you miss the three-year deadline.
For example, to benefit from royalties collected for a given broadcast year (e.g. 2022) your declaration should be made prior to the end of the third year following this broadcast year (e.g. before 31 December 2025).
