Bridging the Gap Between Japan and the World Filming Production in Mongolia
Filming in Mongolia offers great freedom due to its vast landscapes and diverse locations, but preparation is key. The country’s extreme climate changes require careful planning based on the season and weather. Filming permits vary depending on the location and type of shoot, with some areas requiring specific permissions.
Climate: Mongolia’s climate can be harsh, with severe cold and snow in winter and dry conditions in summer, which requires careful planning based on the season.
Filming Permits: Filming in national parks, historical buildings, or areas with nomadic populations requires prior permits from relevant authorities.
Regulations: Environmental and cultural heritage regulations are strict, and filming in certain areas requires adherence to local guidelines for sustainable practices.
Navigating Filming in Mongolia
If you have any concerns or questions regarding filming in Mongolia, feel free to reach out to our production assistants specializing in Mongolian shoots. Our company has an extensive network within Mongolia and offers one-stop support for everything from complex filming permit applications to assistance with local language, laws, and cultural matters.
Entry Permits
Japanese passport holders can stay in Mongolia for up to 30 days without a visa for tourism purposes, provided the passport is valid for at least six months upon entry. If extending the stay or for filming purposes, additional permits or documents may be required. Our production managers are available to guide you through the specific conditions and procedures, so don’t hesitate to contact us.
Filming Permits
Filming in Mongolia requires permits from government authorities or related agencies, depending on the filming location and content. Special permits are needed for filming in national parks, historic buildings, or cultural heritage sites. It is common to hire local production companies or coordinators to handle the application process on your behalf. We offer full support, from document preparation and location scouting to on-site assistance on the filming day.
Equipment Rental
If you’re looking for high-quality camera rentals for your shoot in Mongolia, we provide a wide range of equipment available at local prices. From cameras and sound equipment to lighting and other specialized gear, we utilize our local network to arrange everything you need in one place. Let us handle all aspects of your equipment rental needs to ensure a smooth production.
Cultural Insights
In addition to legal matters such as filming permits, filming in Mongolia can involve cultural considerations, such as language barriers and local customs. Our production services ensure smooth communication with local authorities and communities, minimizing any potential misunderstandings. We can arrange professional interpreters and specialists in various fields who are familiar with local circumstances, providing comprehensive support for your shoot.
Best Filming Seasons
Mongolia experiences distinct seasons, each with its own appeal. Summer (June to August) offers mild weather and clear skies, perfect for filming against the backdrop of vast grasslands and stunning mountains. Winter (November to February) is cold but ideal for capturing snow-covered landscapes or traditional nomadic life. If you plan to film in the Gobi Desert, autumn (September to October) provides moderate temperatures, making it a great time for shoots. Contact our production team for advice on the best season and weather conditions for your project.
