Overseas jingle reporting

So your music was performed overseas as part of an advertisement on radio or television...

Use this form to report jingles that you have written for:

  • use in countries other than Australia and New Zealand
  • overseas commercial radio and television stations

DO NOT use this form for:

  • jingles broadcast in Australia and New Zealand (there is a separate Jingle Reporting Form for this purpose)
  • station IDs (use local index cards or on-line registrations instead)
  • jingles or community service announcements on SBS, ABC or community radio (use local index cards or on-line registrations instead)
  • jingles used in cinemas or on Pay TV
  • music other than jingles (use local index cards or on-line registrations to register all other types of music)

Lodge your jingle claims as soon as possible after an overseas performance.

Select the territory in which your work was performed

If the territory in which your jingle was broadcast is not listed below, it is most likely that this territory does not pay jingle royalties. Please contact us for more information about a specific territory before submitting your claim.
