Incentives

As part of our goal to make Georgia a production-friendly state, we offer production companies strong financial tools that make shooting here the smart choice.

Update: On Monday, May 12, 2008 Governor Sonny Perdue signed new legislation boosting state incentives by as much as 30% for the entertainment industry. Learn more how the new tax incentive will impact the way you do business in Georgia.

The 2008 Georgia Entertainment Industry Investment Act grants a tax credit to qualified production and post-production expenditures. It is available not only to traditional motion picture projects such as feature films, television series, commercials and music videos, but also innovative new industries such as game development and animation.

The Georgia Sales & Use Tax Exemption offers significant savings for film, video, broadcast and music production companies working in Georgia. Qualified companies can get an immediate point-of-purchase sales tax exemption that will save productions up to eight percent on most below-the-line materials and service purchases or rentals.

To learn more about these incentives and how the Georgia Film, Music & Digital Entertainment Office can help make your next shoot a successful venture, contact us.
