Film Permits

Filming on publicly owned properties — including roads, sidewalks, government buildings, and parks — generally requires permits issued by the appropriate city, municipal, or federal offices.

For guidance on obtaining the necessary permits for your production, please contact the Puerto Rico Film Commission. Our team can assist you in navigating the permitting process efficiently and in compliance with local regulations.
