Saudi Arabia Film, Drone, and Journalism Permits Services - Filming Permits and TV/Movie Production Personnel for Madagascar

Saudi Arabia Film, Drone, and Journalism Permit Booking Service

SATT has experience staging, location scouting, and arranging permits, drone permits, journalism and documentary credentials, AV rental, and mobile power solutions for film crews in KSA with the central Riyadh government and the regional and local governments in the country. We need 2-4 weeks lead time to apply and obtain the papers, and for some political journalism it may take longer and require additional screening.

Please detail to us in your application:

1. Your production house or organization

2. Your topic or proposal 

3. Your filming dates  (if known)

4. Your filming location (if known)

5. Your kit and gear (how many pel cases for example)

6. Your personnel and passports

7. Any other pertinent information or contacts or host organization in KSA

8. Your accommodation (need to register this with the government when you arrive.)

9. Your emergency contacts (inside and outside of KSA.)

Samples of past projects have been conservation in marine reserves, conservation and climatology for the Economist, BBC, Saudi Arabian , classic automobiles and supercar collectors, diabetes and cardiovascular health in KSA, desert wildlife and evolution, adventure and culture pieces, tourism and cruise investment, the gold trade and Kimberly ban in irresponsible gold and blood diamonds, the Saudis investing in United States, the history of fragrance prices and production, the local and folk medicine of Arabia, the King's 2030 vision program and response, and the economic puzzle of a future post-oil in the capital...and more.

Drone permits take about 1-2 weeks to obtain and are not necessary for every part of the Kingdom, but where they apply are done so by filing for you to Saudi authorities. We generally need the type and specs of the drone, the itinerary, and the purpose if any, and can get this. Of any sector SATT has the most experience in special aviation and marine projects and so we have developed an effective process for application and rapport with the authorities in KSA. 

If the government has invited you, we can in some circumstances get regional permits under the aegis and auspices of the government body, to avoid lengthy days and delays in the capital.
