Filming in Thailand requires official authorization, a process that can seem daunting. Mediawok’s long-standing license as a Local Coordinator registered with the Film Office of Thailand means we can greatly simplify this for you – with a 100% success rate for Thailand filming permit acquisitions to date.
Let us help manage and prepare all necessary paperwork for your filming permit and temporary work permits for your crew, ensuring your production is fully compliant and can proceed without delay.
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.
Mediawok has extensive experience assisting productions of all sizes – from news pieces and small documentaries to large-scale television productions with crews numbering over a hundred – filming all throughout the country. 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.
