Can I buy a music license after I've already uploaded my video?

Yes, you can purchase a music license for a video you've already uploaded to YouTube, as long as the video is still 'Unlisted'.

If your video has already been uploaded as 'Private' or 'Public' then you cannot purchase a license retrospectively.

Purchasing a license for an 'unlisted' won't stop you from initially receiving a YouTube copyright claim. This is because our VOUCH software cannot automatically release claims on a video ID retroactively.
