Filming Permits in Nepal

 Governments issue filming permits to allow the production of motion movies. Every city and state has a council or office that deals with filming permissions. Obtaining film licenses is a part of the location scouting process, and it is normally the duty of the location manager. Prior to the shoot, permits are provided with information regarding the site, date, time, equipment, staff, special effects, actions, and stunts.

Application costs for filming permissions may apply, and production insurance is frequently required. This process is sometimes handled directly by the city, and occasionally by a non-profit group such as Film LA in Los Angeles. Furthermore, each state may have its own permitting commission for state-owned territory.

To begin, a one-time filming permit is a legal document that grants you permission to film in Nepal. This, too, has limitations and is totally dependent on the place and purpose of filming. This is issued by the Ministry of Information and costs roughly NRS 15,000 (USD 150) depending on the exchange rate.

Second, there are special filming licenses available in Nepal from several government agencies such as the Home Ministry, Defense Ministry, Aviation Body, Heritage Body, Ministry of Tourism, Nepalese Tourism Board, National Park Authority, and Nepal Mountaineering Association.
