Production Insurance
Comprehensive insurance solutions for film productions in Czech Republic.
Production insurance protects against the financial risks inherent in filmmaking. In the Czech Republic, mandatory social and health insurance contributions apply to all local crew, and heritage locations in Prague and other protected sites require specific liability coverage.
We coordinate production insurance through Czech and European brokers experienced in film coverage, including specialists who work regularly with international productions at Barrandov Studios. Our team arranges policies that satisfy Czech social insurance obligations, heritage site mandates, and international distribution standards.

On Location
Production insurance for Czech shoots covers equipment, public and employer liability, cast and errors-and-omissions cover, meeting Czech regulatory requirements and the conditions financiers expect.
Here is how this works in practice. We arrange the insurance a production needs to shoot in the Czech Republic with confidence. Gear and property cover, public liability, employer liability for crew, cast insurance, third-party property damage, and errors-and-omissions cover for rights and clearances. Our team works with insurers skilled in film and audiovisual production, structures cover to the specific risks of the shoot, and makes sure policies meet Czech regulatory needs, including mandatory employer liability and the higher public-liability limits some locations and authorities expect. Premiums and sums insured are handled in Czech koruna. We keep records ordered so liability cover can be evidenced to the Prague Film Commission, location owners and venue operators as a condition of access.
Here is the short of it. Production insurance is closely tied to the rest of a Czech shoot's compliance picture. Insurers expect documented risk assessments and competent on-set oversight. This links cover directly to the health-and-safety workstream. Completion guarantors on larger productions will set their own conditions. The Czech Republic, as a long-established service shoots hub handling major studio work at Barrandov since 'Amadeus', has an insurance market well used to film production and to the demands of global productions.
Here is the breakdown. Our team also manages claims when they arise — reporting, records and advocacy with insurers — aiming for rapid resolution with minimal disruption to the schedule, and sets up insurance alongside contract running so the production's risk position is consistent across every agreement.
