Do I need a licence? All I use is a TV/radio in my business.

Written by Press Officer on .

Yes, you do. The vast majority of TV and radio broadcasts include copyright-protected music. Therefore, if you play TV or radio in your business or workplace, you are required to hold an IMRO Dual Music Licence.

This licence is a legal requirement for using IMRO-controlled copyright music in any public or commercial setting in the Republic of Ireland. It covers music played through TVs, radios, sound systems, computers, presentations, on-hold music, as well as live performances, discos, karaoke, and more.

Having the licence ensures your business complies with copyright law while supporting the music creators whose work you enjoy.
