Copyright clearance

The appropriate copyright clearance code notice has to appear at the bottom of the first page of each paper according to the guidelines set forth in the Cataloging/Copyright Instructions for an IEEE Conference Proceeding. The copyright notice should appear about 1 cm below the left column, and should be aligned to the left with the same left margin as the column. 

The correct notice to use depends on the country of residence of the authors and is as follows:

  • For papers in which all authors are employed by the US government, the copyright notice is: U.S. Government work not protected by U.S. copyright
  • For papers in which all authors are employed by a Crown government (UK, Canada, and Australia), the copyright notice is: 979-8-3503-7055-3/24/$31.00 ©2024 Crown
  • For papers in which all authors are employed by the European Union, the copyright notice is: 979-8-3503-7055-3/24/$31.00 ©2024 European Union
  • For all other papers the copyright notice is: 979-8-3503-7055-3/24/$31.00 ©2024 IEEE

For authors using Microsoft Word, the correct position of the copyright note is already available in the IEEE template. 

If you are preparing your paper in LaTeX and you are using the IEEEtran document class:

  • add the following code before the \maketitle command:
\IEEEoverridecommandlockouts
\IEEEpubid{\makebox[\columnwidth]{ 979-8-3503-7055-3/24/$31.00 \copyright2024 IEEE \hfill} \hspace{\columnsep}\makebox[\columnwidth]{ }}

  • Add the following code after the \maketitle command: \IEEEpubidadjcol
  • The example above is for the fourth category of papers above, i.e. all other papers, which applies to most authors. Make sure you use the appropriate IEEE copyright notice string, as explained above.
  • If you experience problems with the above LaTex instructions when using bibtex, and if you are using \usepackage{fixltx2e}, then please remove the \usepackage{fixltx2e}
