According to Law No. 28 of 2014 on Copyright, it is a movable intangible asset and can be passed on through inheritance, just like tangible property.<\/p>\n<p>Two key components define copyright:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Economic rights<\/strong>: These include the right to reproduce, distribute, or license a work. They can be inherited.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Moral rights<\/strong>: These protect the personal connection between the creator and the work, such as the right to be acknowledged. They cannot be inherited but can be enforced by heirs or specified parties after the creator\u2019s death.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Also read:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/investinasia.id\/blog\/difference-between-copyright-and-patent\/\">What Is the Difference Between a Copyright and a Patent?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Copyright Duration After Death<\/h2>\n<p>Indonesia protects copyrighted works for 70 years after the creator\u2019s death, beginning on January 1st of the year following their death. Once this period ends, the work becomes part of the public domain and is available for anyone to use without restriction.<\/p>\n<p>For works owned by corporations or legal entities, protection lasts 50 years from publication.<\/p>\n<h2>Who Inherits Copyright in Indonesia?<\/h2>\n<p>Copyright does not automatically lapse when a creator dies. It passes to heirs according to two main pathways:<\/p>\n<h3>Statutory Inheritance (Ab Intestato)<\/h3>\n<p>If no will exists, the <strong>Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Perdata (KUHPerdata)<\/strong> determines heirs based on family proximity:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>First group<\/strong>: Surviving spouse and children<\/li>\n<li><strong>Second group<\/strong>: Parents and siblings<\/li>\n<li><strong>Third group<\/strong>: Grandparents and ascendants<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fourth group<\/strong>: Extended family up to the sixth degree<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Higher-priority groups exclude lower ones.<\/p>\n<h3>Testamentary Inheritance (Based on a Will)<\/h3>\n<p>If a will (<strong>Surat Wasiat<\/strong>) exists, it overrides the statutory order. The creator can assign their copyright to friends, institutions, or charities not included in the legal hierarchy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also read:<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/investinasia.id\/blog\/trademark-vs-copyright\/\">Trademark vs Copyright: Understanding Key Differences<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What Happens If There\u2019s No Heir?<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15305\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15305\" style=\"width: 735px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15305\" src=\"https:\/\/investinasia.id\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/indonesian-children.webp\" alt=\"Inheritance of Copyright in Indonesia After Death\" width=\"735\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/investinasia.id\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/indonesian-children.webp 735w, https:\/\/investinasia.id\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/indonesian-children-300x200.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 735px) 100vw, 735px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15305\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Inheritance of Copyright in Indonesia After Death (pexels.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If no valid heirs or will exist, all assets\u2014including copyright\u2014may be claimed by the state, as outlined in Indonesia&#8217;s civil law system.<\/p>\n<h2>Legal Process to Transfer Copyright<\/h2>\n<p>Copyright inheritance is not automatic.
