Financial Incentives
Cash rebate for film or TV projects
Whether you’re producing a film or TV project, our cash rebates and support incentives are designed to reduce production costs, maximise your budget, and provide comprehensive support throughout your shoot.
Film AlUla offers up to 40% cash rebate on qualifying local spend, helping to reduce costs and maximise value.
This rebate can be elevated to 50% when Saudi nationals are employed in key roles within the production, reinforcing our commitment to local workforce development and on-the-ground talent integration.
In addition, productions may be eligible for a further uplift of up to 10% in support incentives. These are awarded to projects that contribute to crew development and training, marketing and promotional activities, and enrich local culture and talent - both in front of and behind the camera.
To qualify, companies must be registered in Saudi Arabia or partnered with a Saudi entity.
All applications are subject to approval based on defined criteria.
Production Assistance
Practical Support, Local Insight
We offer tailored support during the planning stages of your shoot — from scouting diverse filming locations across the AlUla region to providing rebate guidance, coordinating script reviews, and connecting you with trusted local talent, crew, and service providers.
Logistical Support
Support to keep things on track
Once you're on location, we offer practical support to help keep things running smoothly. This includes liaising with government authorities for permits and customs. While we don’t directly manage logistics, Film AlUla can provide recommendations for accommodation and transport services to support your team’s comfort and mobility throughout the production.
Visas and Permits
Smooth Entry, Expert Guidance
For shoots, production companies handle visas for cast and crew, but our team is here to offer guidance if needed. We also work closely with local authorities to support permitting and ensure everything runs smoothly.
