Please ask, I work as an editor. I have been supplied by many friends with different sources of materials, these sources they copy to make writing sources, I would like to ask: Are persons who supply documents for me recognized as authors in Vietnam?

    • Are persons who supply documents recognized as authors in Vietnam?

      Pursuant to Article 6 of Decree 22/2018/ND-CP stipulates as follows:

      1. Author means a person who personally creates part of or the entire literary, artistic or scientific works.

      2. Joint authors means persons who jointly create part of or the entire literary, artistic or scientific works.

      3. Any person who renders supports, give comments or supply documents to others to create works shall not be recognized as author or joint author.

      Therefore, an author is a person who personally creates part of or the entire literary, artistic or scientific works. Organizations and individuals who render supports, give comments or supply documents to others to create works are not recognized as authors in Vietnam.
