The final deadline for co-financing is 15 November 2016. In order to apply for a tender a cooperation agreement between a local coproduction partner and a foreign film production company has to be signed.
A cash rebate plan is in place for the total eligible expenses. In case of a coproduction between Latvian and foreign producers the Latvian producer's investment must not exceed 20% of the film's total budget. The co-financing grant may be cumulated with Riga Film Fund grant, if not exceeding 25 % of public funding for a project.
Gradual increase of the financial support for the Latvian film industry is planned in the following years. The annual state support for Latvian film industry in 2015 is 5.4 m Eur.
