    Hi Ben,

    I am Andy from Vietnam. I’ve worked as producer and TV and film fixer for over ten years. I’ve covered Vietnam and Cambodia.

    I’ve assisted Channel News Asia to shoot the documentary “Inventing SE.Asia” which required to shoot in Cambodia (Mekong river in Phnompenh, Tonle Sap lake, Siem Reap Angkor site…) and Vietnam.

    I am glad to assist you in traveling along the the Mekong River in Vietnam and Cambodia.

    in reply to: Film permits in Vietnam, Oman and Turkey

    Hi Har Klunder,

    I understand that you come to Vietnam to film a corporate video.

    According to Vietnam law, you should apply for film permit.

    The (fee for) Film permit will cover the (fee for) Visa as well as customs clearance of equipment at the airport. Furthermore, most nationals are exept from VISA into Vietnam.

    In addition to fee for film permit, you will have to pay USD2 for taking picture at the airport (if you do not have photo with you).

    To apply for film permit, you should prepare:

    – Shooting schedule (incl shooting locations)
    – Synopsis of the show
    – List of equipment
    – Copy of passport of crew (first page)

    It’ll take around 5 days to issue a film permit.

    And last but not least, I am glad to assist you with this shooting in Vietnam (incl film permit application) at an affordable cost.

    Please drop me a line:
    ntphuong.avg@gmail.com

    Best regards,
    Phuong

    Hi Charlotte,

    Happy Lunar New Year!

    I understand that you come to Vietnam to film a TV show or a feature film.

    If yes, according to Vietnam law, you should apply for film permit.

    The (fee for) Film permit will cover the (fee for) Visa as well as customs clearance of equipment at the airport. Furthermore, you should know that many nationals (incl 6 European citizens) are now exempt from VISA to get into Vietnam.

    In addition to fee for film permit, you will have to pay USD2 for taking picture at the airport (if you do not have photo with you).

    To apply for film permit, you should prepare:

    – Shooting schedule (incl shooting locations)
    – Synopsis of the show
    – List of equipment
    – Copy of passport of crew (first page)

    It’ll take around 7 days to issue a film permit.

    And last but not least, I am glad to assist you with this shooting in Vietnam (incl film permit application) at an affordable cost.
