The Copyright Infringement Letter is a crucial legal instrument used when unauthorized use of copyrighted material is discovered in Belgium. This document serves as the initial formal step in addressing copyright violations, combining elements of Belgian national law and EU copyright directives. It is typically employed when informal resolution attempts have failed or when immediate action is required due to significant infringement. The letter must detail the protected work, evidence of ownership, specific instances of infringement, and demands for cessation, while adhering to Belgian legal requirements for such notices. This document is particularly important as it often serves as the foundation for any subsequent legal proceedings and demonstrates the rights holder's active protection of their intellectual property.
