The deadlines for submitting filming applications during the summer period have been temporarily adjusted. Here's a summary of what you need to know:
Changes to filming authorization deadlines
Due to the growing number of events and the increasing workload of police forces and local authorities, as well as the summer vacations of some members of the college approving your applications, the submission deadlines have been modified to reduce the impact of this situation.
What does this mean for you?
Plan ahead: we advise you to adjust your planning to take account of current deadlines. Make sure your application is submitted on time to avoid delays. Documentation: Check that all required documents and information are attached to your application in a complete and correct manner. This will help us to process your application quickly and efficiently. For more general information: Film Commission | Visit Brussels
