FILM PERMIT SERVICES IN MOROCCO.

Film Permit Support for International Productions

Planning a film, television or commercial shoot in Morocco? CAESTUS FILMS helps international production teams identify the relevant filming-permit process, prepare project information and coordinate applications with the appropriate Moroccan authorities. The scope of support depends on your production format, locations and specific requirements.

Understanding the Authorisations Your Shoot May Need

The Centre Cinématographique Marocain (CCM) administers filming authorisations and declarations for different categories of cinema and audiovisual production. The applicable procedure and documentation are not identical for every project. Some locations and filming activities may also require separate permissions. For a broader local production mandate, explore our executive production and line production services.

Preparing Documents and Coordinating the Application

We start with your production brief, filming schedule and locations to identify the documentation required for the relevant procedure. Depending on the project, this can include a script or synopsis, crew contracts and insurance certificates. We help organise the application materials and coordinate follow-up within the scope agreed with your production team. For an overview, see our guide to filming permit requirements in Morocco.

Permit Support Tailored to Your Production

Feature films, television series, commercials, documentaries and music videos can follow different procedures. We review the shooting dates, locations and planned activities to define the local coordination required. Where a site owner, manager or local authority must grant separate access, we can help coordinate those requests as part of the agreed brief.

Drone Filming and Additional Permissions

Aerial filming can involve approvals beyond the main filming arrangements, including requirements linked to drone operations and specific locations. These need to be assessed for the equipment and shoot concerned. If you are planning aerial sequences, learn more about our Drone Permit Services.

Discuss Your Filming Requirements in Morocco

Send us your project format, proposed dates, filming locations, information about any visiting crew, and details of aerial or restricted-location sequences. We can review the likely permit requirements and outline the local support CAESTUS FILMS can provide. Approval decisions and processing times remain with the relevant authorities.

FAQ

We assist with permit preparation and local coordination for feature films, television, commercials, documentaries, music videos and other audiovisual projects. For still photography or other formats, share your brief so we can identify any relevant location permissions or requirements. The applicable procedure depends on the project.

Processing times vary according to the production category, the documents submitted and the procedure involved. Some categories have specific regulatory timeframes, which should be checked against current CCM guidance for your project. We can help plan preparation and follow-up, but cannot guarantee an approval date.

The documents vary by project category. CCM procedures for many cinema and audiovisual productions refer to materials such as a script or synopsis, filming schedule, crew contracts and insurance certificates. Other information may be required for particular formats or locations. We review the relevant checklist before preparing the application.

Yes. We assist international production teams with local permit documentation and coordination. If a project also requires budgeting, crew arrangements, suppliers or wider on-the-ground management, that support is scoped separately with the production team.

We can help identify and coordinate additional location permissions where required, including discussions with site owners, managers and relevant local authorities. Such permissions may be separate from the CCM process, and approval rests with the relevant parties.
