An Artist Resale Royalty Scheme is being established in Aotearoa New Zealand to ensure the creators of visual art are recognised and rewarded when their work is resold on the secondary art market.

Manatū Taonga is currently in the process of appointing a collection agency to collect the royalties on resales, and then distribute them to the artist.

Registration of Interest to be the collection agency to deliver the Artist Resale Royalty Scheme is now open for applications until 22 November.
