Yes, any qualifying resale of an original artwork, regardless of the artist’s country of origin, must be reported to Resale Royalties Aotearoa (RRA).
Our role at RRA is to assess the eligibility of the artist and verify the validity of the resale right, ensuring it has not expired. As Aotearoa’s Artist Resale Royalty Scheme includes reciprocal arrangements with a continuously expanding list of international territories, including numerous EU countries and other parts of the world, it is important to report all such resales.
Please be advised that for any reported resale where the artist is deemed ineligible or the resale right has expired, no royalty will be applied (meaning RRA will not invoice for the reported resale).
For a list of reciprocating countries, please refer to the list available on our website here: Sister societies. Please note however that RRA may update this list from time to time without notice.
