Production Vehicles

Here is how this works in practice. We source and set up production vehicle packages from local fleet providers, matching vehicle types and quantities to each production's scale. Part of the deep logistical infrastructure that makes the Czech Republic the 'Hollywood of the East'. Camera and grip trucks, lighting trucks, wardrobe and hair-and-makeup trailers, cast motorhomes, production offices and honey wagons form the mobile base camp our team builds around your schedule. We handle parking permits, positioning and movement logistics, and can supply professional drivers familiar with Czech rules. Because the country sits inside the EU single market and Schengen, vehicles and any gear they carry cross freely from neighbouring Germany and Austria with no carnet needed for EU transport, with road access to Munich, Vienna and Berlin.

Here is the short of it. Vehicle logistics in the Czech Republic span historic city centres and a land-based climate with four distinct seasons. Prague's protected old-town streets, Cesky Krumlov and the approaches to castles such as Karlstejn and Loket impose tight access and parking restrictions, so our team plans advance parking, base-camp placement and unit moves around heritage-site rules. Cold, snowy winters demand winter tyres, careful manoeuvring on icy ground and heated facilities for cast and crew, while warm summers ease open-air base camps.

Here is the breakdown. Non-EU productions importing expert vehicles clear ATA Carnets through Czech Customs (Celni sprava), with Vaclav Havel Airport Prague the main air-cargo gateway. Vehicle hire from Czech providers counts toward qualifying spend under the Czech Film Fund's 20% cash rebate, invoiced in Czech koruna with 21% VAT.
