Film Permit

PROCESS OF FILMING

See how easy is to start
a new filming project


The City of Airport and Airport City Association help your production company to:

  • Access civic services
  • Get film activity permits and other related permits suited to your production's specific needs
  • Approve location requests to film on streets, or other City properties in ways that respect our residents and businesses
Your proposed filming locations could mean that you work with our Airport City Office (for in Airport City), Ghana Airports Company Ltd/LaDMA (for all other public locations), or both.

If your on-location filming will impact public property or the surrounding neighbourhood, you need film activity permit. Each filming location and day requires at least one film activity permit.
1. We prepare your permit in consultation with your location manager to specify all the activities that will affect how public property is normally used.
2. We issue permits to your company upon giving a final approval of all your activities.
3. Your senior production staff need to review the permit before filming begins.
4. Your location manager or assistant location manager must be on location during filming.
