The National Registry of Artists and Cultural Workers is a programme of the Government of Trinidad and Tobago. The goals of this initiative are to
 facilitate access of intended beneficiaries to the gains provided by six distinct amendments (Act No. 91 of 2000, Act No. 2 of 2002, Act No. 4 of
 2004, Act No. 2 of 2006, Act No. 17 of 2007 and Act No. 13 of 2010) to the Corporation Tax Act.

 The development of a database of all artists to facilitate development of cultural industries, research and heritage will be an additional goal of the
 project. The Registry will also optimize the benefits to be accrued to nationals from the Caribbean Single Market and Economy and the Economic
 Partnership Agreement (EPA) between the European Union and CARICOM.

 The Registration and Certification processes will be facilitated by an Assessment Committee for the National Registry of Artists and Cultural Workers
 and the Certification of Audio, Visual and Video Productions.

 Registration expires every five (5) years and must be renewed accordingly.
