The copyright in the U. S. on foreign publications that had failed to comply with the ( former ) formality requirements of the U. S. was generally restored when the copyright restorations of the Uruguay Round Agreement Act ( URAA ) became effective in the U. S. on January 1, 1996.

Judge Babcock found that aspects of the 1994 Uruguay Round Agreements Act, which brought some works whose copyright had lapsed back under copyright, violated First Amendment rights of so-called reliance parties, i. e., parties who had been using a work formerly in the public domain before the URAA became effective, relying on the work being in the public domain, and who would now no longer be able to do so.

The URAA automatically restored the copyright on foreign works that were still copyrighted in their country of origin on January 1, 1996, but whose copyright in the U. S. had lapsed through non-compliance with the U. S. formalities, such as non-registration or a lack of international or bilateral copyright treaties between the country of origin of a work and the U. S. Later copyright cases in the U. S. do apply the URAA restorations and thus even may consider unregistered foreign works as copyrighted in the U. S.
