Film permits

To film in our territory, Film Valencia and its network of film offices help you with the necessary permissions to make your shoot as problem-free as possible.

No filming permit is necessary when one or more of these circumstances occur:

• In shootings with small teams of less than 10 people.
• When a public domain surface is limited.
• When the vehicle and pedestrian traffic is interrupted.

For shoots with large teams of more than 10 people you need to request permission at least two weeks in advance.
