Abstract	This paper presents some new results for the existence of a unique 2π-periodic solution of even order differential equations. Here the assumption in [3, J. H. Chen and D. O’Regan, On periodic solutions for even order differential equations, Nonlinear Anal., (2007), doi: 10.1016/j.na.2007.06.013] that maximal solution of an initial value problem exists is removed.
