Expert Guidance Through Every Step of the Application Process

In order for a foreign film production to be created in Thailand, an official Thailand filming permit must be obtained from the Film Office of Thailand (under the Department of Tourism, Ministry of Tourism and Sports). This permit, along with temporary work permits for foreign crew members, must be acquired through a registered Thai Local Coordinator company.

Whichever type of film production you seek to create, we have the knowledge to advise the correct approach in formulating an official application and will expertly guide you through the entire process.
