Single Use Music License

"I need a Single Use Music License for using a copyrighted song in a marketing video that will be displayed on our company's social media channels in Germany for a three-month campaign starting March 1, 2025."

Document background

The Single Use Music License is a specialized agreement used when a party needs to obtain permission for a one-time, specific use of a musical work in Germany. This document is essential for ensuring compliance with German copyright law (Urheberrechtsgesetz) and protecting both the rights holder's interests and the licensee's intended use. It is commonly used for individual projects, events, or productions where music will be used in a defined context, such as a single advertisement, one-time event, or specific production. The agreement includes crucial details about the musical work, permitted use, duration, territory, and payment terms, while ensuring compliance with German collecting society requirements. This type of license is distinct from broader licensing agreements as it limits the scope to a single, specific use, making it particularly suitable for project-based music usage.
