Do I need permits to film in Croatia?
Yes, filming permits are required for most professional video production in Croatia. The project requires all necessary permits which must be obtained from city authorities and regional bodies and heritage sites and locations that need special permits. The Croatian company Fixers in Croatia takes care of all permit requests and handles official government interactions and follows all rules which govern film production in Croatia. The permit process duration spans between two weeks and four weeks depending on the location and the scope of production operations.
What are the best filming locations in Croatia?
Croatia offers diverse filming locations including Zagreb's Austro-Hungarian architecture and medieval Upper Town, Dubrovnik's UNESCO-listed Old Town and city walls, Split's Diocletian's Palace and Adriatic waterfront, the Dalmatian islands, Istria's hilltop villages and vineyards, and the dramatic Plitvice Lakes. Each location offers unique visual appeal and cultural significance.
How long does it take to get film permits in Croatia?
The processing time for film permits usually requires 2 to 4 weeks for typical production needs. The completion time for complex shoots which include heritage sites and government buildings and protected locations will take between 4 to 6 weeks. The emergency permit process requires 1–2 weeks for completion but customers must pay extra fees for this service.
Can international productions bring their own equipment to Croatia?
International productions can bring equipment to Croatia by following customs procedures and obtaining temporary import permits. Local equipment rental provides better cost efficiency than importing equipment because it eliminates the need to deal with customs procedures. The Croatian company Fixers offers professional equipment rental services and assists customers with customs clearance procedures when they want to import their own equipment into the country.
