May I reproduce on CD-R myself?

Yes, but please send us a reproduction application first. You can easily do this via MyUnisono (FR - NL).

After we have processed your application, you will receive an invoice from us for the use of Sabam’s (inter)national repertoire.

 

How much does it cost?

The rate amounts to 8% of the retail price of the CD (excluding VAT), with an absolute minimum of:

  • 60 euros per application for reproduction of singles (2 works / max. 10 min.)
  • 125 euros per application for reproduction of albums (18 works / max. 80 min.)


The rate is per application and is increased by 6% VAT.

 

Hologram

Note that you have to attach a tamper-proof and non-reusable hologram to each CD-R. This hologram costs 0.09 euros each (incl. VAT) and will automatically be added to your invoice.

As soon as Sabam has processed your payment, you will receive the permission to press as well as the necessary holograms.

 

Tips for your application

Under ‘label’, please fill in the name of the music label. If you release the work yourself, you can choose any name you want. As far as Sabam is concerned, your label name has then been created and no further formalities need to be completed.

Under ‘catalogue number’, please enter the catalogue number of the release. A catalogue number is always ascending. If you release the work yourself, please use an abbreviation of the label name and the numbers 01 for your first release.

Under ‘graphic reproduction’, please only tick ‘yes’ if you are using protected images on the cover of the work.


Be sure to take a look at our brochure for music on a sound carrier (FR - NL).
