Background
Cape Verde was first settled by the Portuguese in the 15th century. The islands were incorporated as an overseas department of Portugal in 1951. They gained independence in 1975.
Cape Verde has been a member of the Berne Convention since 7 July 1997, the World Trade Organization since 23 July 2008 and the WIPO Copyright treaty since 22 May 2019.[1]
As of 2018 the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), an agency of the United Nations, listed Decree-Law No. 1/2009 of April 27, 2009, on the Revision of Copyright Law as the main copyright law of Cape Verde.[1] WIPO holds the text of this law in their WIPO Lex database.[2] This was amended by Decree-Law No. 2/2017 of November 16, 2017.[1] The amendment does to appear to affect the definitions of works or the durations of protection.[3]
