Buma payment through your booking agency
Some booking agencies can invoice the Buma payment on our behalf, so this will cover part of the royalties. The booking agency charges 7% of the buyout fee for this purpose. The invoice clearly states that this is for Buma copyright, so make sure you check this on the invoice.
As an organiser, you are responsible for applying for a licence, and you always need one when music is played. You apply for the licence by submitting the statement. Please let us know if you have already paid a part through the booking agency and upload the invoice stating this. We will deduct this payment from your licence fee, so you won’t be charged twice.
Easily arranged through the booking agency
If there’s no ticket sales and all performance fees have already been paid to the booking agency, the amount paid suffices, and no additional license from Buma is required.
Additional license
If payment for the Buma fees for all performances hasn’t been settled via the booking agency yet, and/or if there were ticket sales, Buma calculates the remaining amount for the license, and you’ll receive an additional invoice for this.
