Christian Copyright Licence

Central Payment Process for Copyright Licences

Guildford is the first Church of England Diocese to establish a partnership with Christian Copyright Licensing International (CCLI). A Central Payment Process is now in place and the Diocese will be invoiced for all licences provided by CCLI to Church of England Churches in the Diocese of Guildford.

CCLI will no longer send annual bills to treasurers. Otherwise, the relationship between parishes and CCLI will not change. All queries regarding individual licences should still be directed to CCLI.

All Churches in the the Diocese are now covered for the copying of words and music of copyright material - the Church Copyright Licence (CCL) and the Music Reproduction Licence (MRL).

For details of copyright arrangements for material not covered by the CCL, please click here
