Zambia Film Permit
Zambia film permits are one of the easiest to obtain for Film Fixers Africa. Access is fairly simple, and so is the procedure.
All permits are authorised by the Zambian Ministry of Information.
Visas are very easy to obtain – any western passport holders can obtain visas on arrival.
Media accreditation is required, and the application is very simple – it’s just time consuming paperwork – but we handle all that for you!
Application begins with the submission of passport info for all crew members, equipment details and any further documents required – we will be able to facilitate all that. Media accreditation can take up to 10 working days and lasts for 30 days. This permit is supplied by the Zambian Ministry of Information.
Usually this permit allows access to some low-level public areas, however, when filming in high-public areas, such as a market or CBD, an additional permit might be required – which comes with service fees – however, we expedite this process for you. We have great connections with the officials, and our local support team, who can handle the process on the ground.
Filming in national parks must be applied for after a permit is granted. This might take an additional amount of time, however, we can speed this up from the ground.
