The Licensee must report music as specified in the General Terms and Conditions.
Miscellaneous
Advance notification
If STIM so requests, the Licensee is obliged to notify STIM of planned events in advance. The notification must be submitted at least seven calendar days before the planned event and must include the date, venue and city.
Visits
STIM has the right to visit events for the purpose of verifying that the Licensee provides correct information about Reporting and Music Reporting. STIM shall announce visits in advance and the Licensee shall then provide two admission tickets free of charge.
Provision of premises and responsible organizer
If a Licensee lets premises to a third party (a so-called responsible organizer), the responsible organizer should normally obtain a license. The Licensee shall notify STIM that the responsible organizer has used the premises and state the date of the letting. The Licensee shall also inform the responsible organizer that they may need to obtain a license with STIM. If the responsible organizer does not obtain a license when required, the Licensee may be regarded as responsible for the use of the music.
By responsible organizer is primarily meant the person who has a permit under the Public Order Act or a permit to sell food or alcohol on the premises. Secondarily it means the person in whose cash book the ticket revenues are recorded. Independent ticket agents are not considered responsible organizers if the majority of the ticket sales revenue accrues to someone else. At free-admission events, the person who has the financial reporting responsibility for the majority of the costs is regarded as the responsible organizer.
