Cruise ships

The license fee for live and background music performed in the dining areas, bars (including pub, lounge, etc.), and clubs on board depends on the number of restaurants, cafes, bars, discos, etc., on the ship.

For music played on ships, the fee does not depend on whether it is live or background music.

Background music – music that is played at the location specified in the contract without the participation of the performer(s), but is only performed through any technical means or process (radio, television, internet, etc.).

Live music – music that is sung, played, or otherwise performed directly, either live or through a recording (e.g., karaoke).

In addition, there is an additional daily license fee for background music played in other areas of the ship (e.g., shops, cabins, corridors, elevators, children’s rooms, etc.), which is €10 per day on the ship.

These license fee rates do not apply to paid concerts, shows, and theatrical performances. The license fee for organizing such events is separately agreed upon.
