Introduction to Film Production in Belgium
Professional fixer services provide essential local knowledge and operational support that bridges the gap between international productions and local environments, ensuring smooth logistics, regulatory compliance, and cultural navigation throughout the filming process. As a company, we offer full production services, including comprehensive management of logistics, crew, and equipment.
Our experienced fixers bring deep understanding of local customs, government procedures, business practices, and logistical networks that enable foreign productions to operate efficiently while maintaining positive relationships with local communities, authorities, and service providers. They assist with creating and managing local production budgets and schedules, negotiating with local suppliers to secure competitive rates.
Belgium delivers proven film production capabilities that combine established cinematic infrastructure with operational efficiency. The country provides diverse location assets—from major urban centers to rural territories and coastal regions—that serve the specific requirements of TV series, commercial productions, and feature films.

Frequently Asked Questions
What permits are needed for filming in Belgium?
Belgium's permit requirements vary by region and municipality. Brussels-Capital, Flemish, and Walloon authorities each issue their own filming permits. Public space filming typically requires police notification and municipal approval. Our fixers coordinate across all three regions to secure the correct permits for your locations.
How do Belgium's regional film bodies support productions?
Screen.brussels, Flanders Image (VAF), and Wallimage each offer production incentives and logistical support. The tax shelter system provides up to 42% tax benefit for qualifying productions. Our fixers help you identify which regional bodies apply to your shoot and navigate the application processes.
How do you handle Belgium's language complexity?
Our Belgian fixers are multilingual — fluent in French, Dutch, and English, with many also speaking German. This is essential when coordinating with Flemish police in Antwerp, French-speaking municipal offices in Wallonia, or bilingual Brussels authorities. We ensure no communication barriers slow your production.
What does a typical fixer handle on a Belgian production?
Our Belgian fixers arrange regional filming permits, coordinate police and traffic management, secure access to heritage buildings and public spaces, source local crew and equipment, manage Schengen visa support for non-EU crew, handle ATA Carnets for equipment, and provide trilingual on-set coordination throughout the shoot.
