Filming in Iceland

In recent years Iceland has been gaining a higher profile in the international film industry. Internationally acclaimed actors and directors have been working in Iceland with highly skilled local crews.

Experience and quality

Icelandic production companies have in recent years produced 5-6 motion pictures per year of a high technical standard. This means that Iceland has good pool of highly professional film crews to work on films and television programmes. Also, international movies have been made in Iceland in cooperation with local production companies, and scenes in many movies also originate in Iceland.

In recent years innovative agencies have also shot a number of internationally acclaimed commercials in eye-catching Icelandic surroundings, and the same trend has taken place in music videos. A range of production companies with years of experience can assist with all film production requirements in Iceland. They can assist with crew, equipment, casting, studios, locations, permits (where needed), etc. No tariff or duties are levied on equipment used for temporary film production.
