A film fixer in Indonesia serves as an expert who delivers local production assistance to international productions through complete management of all required tasks including permit acquisition and crew supervision and location setup. Fixers in Indonesia provides complete production solutions which include government permits and equipment rental and local crew recruitment and location selection and cultural support for successful film production in Indonesia.

How much does it cost to film in Indonesia?

Our team will create an extensive quote which meets all your production needs.

Do I need permits to film in Indonesia?

Yes, filming permits are required for most professional video production in Indonesia. 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 Indonesian company Fixers in Indonesia takes care of all permit requests and handles official government interactions and follows all rules which govern film production in Indonesia. 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 Indonesia?

Indonesia offers diverse filming locations including Jakarta's iconic landmarks and distinct neighborhoods, Bali's cultural district and harbor waterfront, Yogyakarta's ancient temples and rice terraces, the tropical coast's stunning island coastlines, Surabaya's Dutch colonial architecture and historic quarters, and Komodo Island's dramatic volcanic landscapes. Each location offers unique visual appeal and cultural significance.

How long does it take to get film permits in Indonesia?

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 Indonesia?

International productions can bring equipment to Indonesia 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 Indonesian 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.
