Most of us are not quite familiar with copyright law. Simply put, it's the right to use other's work as your own like images, videos, and so on. Only the author can have the right to copy, sell, publish their work. If you use their work for your own without the author's permission, it's copyright infringement.

In some countries, like the US, copyright violation is quite serious. And it could get you into a lawsuit and you will have to pay a great deal of money. So, check carefully copyright law in the countries you dropship to, and make sure that your products are safe to sell. It's the protection for you to avoid getting sued when dropshipping, especially when you dropship internationally.

You could read through the copyright law of the countries that you run your business. Check and identify your products if they contain any images or intellectual work from a copyright holder. If no, it's good to go. If yes, find ways to solve it as soon as possible before selling them.

If you do not want to use copyrighted work from others, you can as well create yourself or find copyright-free images to use. One of the useful ways is to use Canva. This tool allows you to create your own images and videos without worrying about the copyright. Or you can find copyright-free photos on other websites like Pixabay, Shutterstock, Pexels, Burst, etc.
