Permissions request form

Please read the following guidelines before submitting your request.

If the requested material is in paperback, please check the copyright page at the front of the
book for information indicating that another publisher previously published the title. In most
cases you should apply for permission to the original publisher directly.

If the requested material is part of an anthology or a collection, please check the
acknowledgement page(s) for details on the copyright holder of the material you wish to
reproduce. If the copyright is not held by Penguin (UK), apply for permission to the
acknowledged third party directly.

UK copyright expires at the end of the period of 70 years from the end of the calendar year
in which the author dies, unless the work was published posthumously. If the copyright has
expired, the original text may be reproduced freely and no permission is needed.

We cannot grant translation rights in all languages, please reapply for each separate
language at a time when you have determined the publication.

Please do not send duplicate requests.
To apply for permission to use material from Penguin (UK) publications, please complete all the
fields appropriate to your particular request. Please do not omit any information as this may
cause delays in processing your request.

In certain cases we have to consult authors, literary agents or estates, and this might also
prolong the time of processing your request.
