FAQ
Yes, absolutely. International crews are welcome, but you must follow local regulations on location permits, visas, and equipment customs. As your local fixer in Kazakhstan, we handle all of this on your behalf.
Yes, Kazakhstan is part of the ATA Carnet system. You can temporarily import professional cameras, lenses and lighting equipment duty-free, as long as the paperwork is correctly prepared. We advise on every step.
We strongly recommend using our local drone unit. Importing drones requires complex declarations, and obtaining flight permits as a foreigner is very time-consuming. Our in-house operators are already registered and licensed to fly in Kazakhstan.
It depends on the passport. Many nationalities enjoy a visa-free regime for short stays; others may need an e-visa. We check your entire crew list during pre-production to ensure everyone arrives without issues.
For a standard location shoot we recommend 4–6 weeks lead time for permits and logistics. For large productions involving multiple locations, national parks or government buildings, allow 2–3 months. Contact us early and we'll build the right timeline.
Kazakhstan is one of the most visually spectacular and undiscovered filming destinations in the world.
