TAX INCENTIVES FOR BIGGER BUDGETS & MORE CREATIVE FREEDOM
What Are Tax Incentives?
Governments worldwide offer tax incentives and benefits to attract filmmakers, providing financial support that can significantly boost your production. With options like tax credits, rebates, grants, and exemptions, these incentives can enhance your budget, increase creative freedom, and simplify location selection.
