    SUBJECT SUPPLEMENTAL GUIDELINES. ON BULK COPYRIGHT REGISTRATION AND RECORDATION FEES WHEREAS, in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) signed on January 25, 201 1, the Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines (IPOPHL) was deputized by the National Library of the Philippines (NLP) as a receiving office for the registration and deposit of copyrighted works as well as the recordation of documents pertaining to assignment, transfer, and exclusive license thereof; WHEREAS, IPOPHL has been faithfully performing services pursuant to such deputization, and has issued Memorandum Circular No. 2017-002 prescribing the applicable fees for said services, including the acceptance of bulk copyright deposit; WHEREAS, IPOPHL Memorandum Circular No. 2020-025 lowered the qualifying threshold for bulk copyright registration and recordation from 50 works to 10 works; WHEREAS, there is a need to provide clarification and guidance in the collection of fees for bulk copyright registration and recordation as prescribed in IPOPHL MC No. 2017-002, vis-a-vis IPOPHL MC No. 2020-025; NOW, THEREFORE, the following are hereby adopted as supplemental guidelines on the collection of fees for bulk copyright registration and recordation applications:
