Hello, I live in Peru and I need register my products, copyrigths, etc. Basicly in USA, I think. Please, can somebody tell me what I must do or who contact ? It is very important. Thank you very much. Cristian G. Amayo

Since it is very important, you should consult a lawyer and explain to him/her your requirements. Different countries have different copyright laws. Some countries have agreements between them so that if your work is protected in one country it may also be protected in another. The site http://www.copyright.org.au is meant to be used by Australians (in Australia copyright protection is automatic). It has a number of useful articles about copyright including an information sheet called "Copyright Protection in Other Countries". This may give you a clue to what you need to consider. That said, it is likely that you will need to understand your home countries copyright law before looking into other countries. Maybe others on this list will add some other links. Brett.
