The first Indonesian copyright legislation was passed as the 1982 Copyright Law (Undang-Undang Nomor 6 Tahun 1982 tentang Hak Cipta). It was amended twice in 1987 (Undang-undang Nomor 7 Tahun 1987) and 1997 (Undang-Undang Nomor 12 Tahun 1997).

Freedom of panorama[edit]

Inconclusive. The 2014 Copyright Law is silent on the matter of FOP. It is stated that "unless agreed otherwise, the owner and/or holder of a works of photography, paintings, drawings, architectural work, sculpture or other artistic works have the right to make a publication of the works in a public exhibition or a reproduction in a catalog produced for exhibition purposes without any consent of the author".[43] The provisions regarding the publication of works as referred to in Art 15 (1) "also apply to portraits insofar as they do not contradict the provisions as referred to in Article 12"[44], which stated that:

  • Commercial use, reproduction, publication, distribution and/or communication of a portrait taken for commercial billboards or advertising purposes without the written consent of the persons in the portrait or their heirs is prohibited;[45]
  • Commercial use, reproduction, publication, distribution and/or communication of the portrait as referred to in the previous section, containing portraits of 2 (two) or more persons, are obligated to request the consent of the persons in the portrait or their heirs.[46]

The only scholarly work about FOP in Indonesia to date based its research on the now-repealed 2002 Copyright Law, which has similar provisions, and concluded that "it is possible for other people beside the authors of copyright-protected works to display or reproduce photographic works, although in a very limited manner", but concluded that it "does not mean that the freedom of panorama is prohibited".[47]
