In the European Union, even if a Member State provides for the possibility of a legal person to be the original rightholder (such as is possible in the UK),[10][11] then the duration of protection is in general the same as the copyright term for a personal copyright: i.e., for a literary or artistic work, 70 years from the death of the human author, or in the case of works of joint authorship, 70 years from the death of the last surviving author. If the natural author or authors are not identified, nor become known subsequently, then the copyright term is the same as that for an anonymous or pseudonymous work, i.e. 70 years from publication for a literary or artistic work; or, if the work has not been published in that time, 70 years from creation.[12] (Copyright durations for works created before 1993 may be subject to transitional arrangements).[13]
