Interim Rule Governs Correction of Errors in Certificates of Registration of Vessel Hull Designs

The Copyright Office is publishing an interim rule governing the correction of errors in certificates of registration of vessel hull designs. Under the new rule, an owner of a vessel hull design may request a corrected certificate of registration to correct a clerical or typographical error in a certificate of registration that is a result of error in the application by submitting an application for correction of the certificate of registration, new Form DC, and the applicable fee.

The Office will also issue a corrected certificate of registration to correct a clerical or typographical error made by the Office. Submission of a Form DC and a filing fee is not required to correct these errors.

This rule is effective August 14, 2006.
