Immigration

Special passes (work permits) are provided to each foreign crew member at $30 dollars per person for three months. Applications must be made through a filming agent.
There are no limits on the number of foreign crew, and foreign crews are not subject to any local taxation. Local crews continue to offer competitive prices in a highly de-regulated economy. They are generally subject to only a 5% withholding tax, which the production company deducts at source.
