Last Updated March 28, 2024
The copyright of the lyrics, original songs, and repair arrangements of Yokohama City Songs has expired due to the expiration of the protection period, so anyone can use it freely without applying for permission.
Yokohama City Song is a song that has been loved by citizens for more than 100 years, so please consider this point when using it.
＊Please note that the copyright of some arranged music in personal names has not expired because the protection period has been extended to 70 years after his death under the revised Copyright Act.
