Important information

  • Musicstart is replacing provisional works registrations
  • As the submission of the sound file or score and text is optional for some works, use Musicstart to obtain proof of authorship of your works.
  • Listing a work on Musicstart does not entitle you to royalties. You absolutely must register your works with Sacem as early as possible before they are broadcast or listened to.
