Why shoot in Portugal?
Portugal offers everything a filmmaker could ask for, stunning light, beautiful and varied scenery, and short distances between locations. With over 300 days of sunshine a year, it’s perfect for outdoor shoots and fast, efficient schedules. We know that prices are rising, but Portugal still has incredible value to offer — and at TEMA, we make sure you get the best crews, the best deals, and the best experience this country can offer.

Incentives & International Partnerships
Portugal offers one of the most attractive incentive programs in Europe, with cash rebates of up to 30% on eligible production expenses. These incentives, managed by the Portuguese Film and Audiovisual Institute (ICA), make filming in Portugal not only creatively rewarding but also financially competitive. With co-production agreements with over 60 countries, including Portuguese-speaking nations like Brazil, Angola, and Mozambique, Portugal is perfectly positioned for international collaboration. At TEMA, we help our clients navigate the rebate process and take full advantage of these incentives, ensuring that your production benefits from every possible advantage.
