Navigating China’s filming permit requirements represents one of the most challenging aspects for foreign productions. The process involves multiple government departments, specific documentation requirements, and varying regulations across different provinces and municipalities. Our experienced fixers have established relationships with relevant authorities and understand the nuances of permit applications for different types of productions.
