Foreign Film Production Insurance Eligibility Criteria

International Filming

Your production must take place outside the borders of the United States and Canada. Whether you’re shooting a thrilling adventure in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, capturing the charm of European streets, or exploring exotic Asian landscapes, our insurance is tailored for global film ventures.

Limited Risk Factors

To maintain eligibility, your production should not involve high-risk elements like stunts, pyrotechnics, or underwater activities. This ensures that the coverage is well-suited for a wide range of film projects while minimizing safety concerns.

Non-Sanctioned Locations

Your production should not occur in a country currently sanctioned by the U.S. government. While we support international filmmaking, we must comply with legal regulations to provide coverage.

U.S. Based Production Companies

Our Foreign Production Insurance is available exclusively to U.S.-based production companies. If your company meets this criterion and your production aligns with the eligibility guidelines, you can access comprehensive insurance tailored to the unique challenges of international filmmaking.
