My audiovisual work is being broadcast abroad on television. Which copyright royalties am I going to receive?

Sabam distributes each year, in May and in November, the royalties coming from abroad.

The date of receipt of those royalties is a very fluctuating parameter and depends on the dates on which the different authors’ societies in the world collect and distribute their royalties.

Consequently, we depend on the other authors’ societies and we receive the royalties only sparingly.
