Visits
STIM has the right to visit events in order to verify that the Licensee provides correct information regarding Reporting and Music Reporting. STIM shall give advance notice of visits and the Licensee shall then provide two admission tickets free of charge.
Provision of premises and responsible organizer
If a Licensee makes premises available to a third party (a so‑called responsible organizer), the responsible organizer shall normally take out a license. The Licensee shall notify STIM that the responsible organizer has used the premises and state the date of the letting. The Licensee shall also inform the responsible organizer that they may need to obtain a license from STIM. If the responsible organizer does not take out a license when required, the Licensee may be regarded as responsible for the use of music.
By 'responsible organizer' is primarily meant the person who has a permit under the Public Order Act or a permit to sell food or alcohol on the premises. Alternatively, it means the person in whose cash book ticket revenues are recorded. Independent ticket agents are not considered responsible organizers if the majority of the revenues from ticket sales are credited to someone else. At free‑admission events, the person who has the financial accounting responsibility for the majority of the costs is regarded as the Responsible organizer.
