Pricelist

A few things to keep in mind before examining Myndstef’s pricelist:

  • The pricelist are for guidance and should be looked at as a reference to the price for reproduction. The pricelist does not apply to first-publications of works, working hours of an author to produce works or any other.
  • Authors can negotiate payment for reproduction of their works without involvement of Myndstef or this pricelist.
  • Prices are based on reproduction of one work, unless expressly stated otherwise.
  • Prices are in Icelandic Krona.
  • If a reproduction has occurred without permission or if terms of permission are not respected, Myndstef may, on behalf of the author concerned, claim damages in the form of a raise of prices by up to 100%.
  • If a reproduction is considered a breach of the author’s moral rights, damages can be collected in the amount of 2/3 of prices in pricelist.
  • Myndstef reserves the right to negotiate the amounts in special circumstances, especially if usage does not fall within mentioned categories in pricelist.
  • Myndstef reserves the right to look for examples and customs in regards to amounts in special circumstances, when usage is not mentioned in the pricelist.

This pricelist is based on Myndstef’s former pricelist, that was certified by the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture. This pricelist was last approved at Myndstef’s annual general meeting in 2022 and is revised every year.
