introduction The Netherlands is home to a vibrant film industry with an open attitude towards international co-production. The Netherlands Film Fund is the national agency responsible for supporting film production and film related activities in the Netherlands. Its focus is to develop and strengthen Dutch cinema and film culture both domestically and internationally. The Film Fund offers various selective support schemes on production and distribution for minority Dutch co-productions. It also runs the Film Production Incentive, offering a up to 35% cash rebate on production costs spent in the Netherlands and oversees the activities of the Netherlands Film Commission. We are happy to guide you through the primary principles of the different support schemes. Please feel invited to contact us and find out why co-producing with the Netherlands is indeed worthwhile exploring! Doreen Boonekamp CEO Netherlands Film Fund

selective production support for minority dutch co-productions How much can be applied for? Up to 250,000 euro for a feature film. Up to 50,000 euro for a documentary or a short animation. What is our focus? Creative co-productions with a strong artistic and international appeal. Good chances of reciprocity will enhance the likelihood of funding. European-based production companies and countries with a co-production agreement with the Netherlands. Directors with a proven international track record. What are the primary conditions? The grant must be fully spent on Dutch services, cast and crew. A deal memo from a Dutch film distributor for the theatrical release in the Netherlands is required. The Dutch share totals at least 10% of the production costs, including a possible Dutch share from Eurimages. Projects should have substantial financial support in place from the country of origin of the main producer totaling at least 50% of his own share including a selective production grant from a regional or national film fund.

selective distribution support Distributors of Dutch minority co-productions that have been backed with a selective production grant can receive up to 10,000 euro to cover distribution costs for the theatrical release in the Netherlands. Sales agents of Dutch films that have been backed with selective production funding can apply for a matching international distribution or dubbing grant up to 20,000 euro (50% of total costs) to release a Dutch film outside the Benelux.
co-production treaties and agreements The Netherlands has treaties with Canada, France, Germany, China, South Africa and the French Community of Belgium. The Netherlands Film Fund also runs reciprocal international funding schemes with: Flanders Audiovisual Fund (VAF), supporting features up to 200,000 euro, documentaries and (short) animation films up to 50,000 euro. Norwegian Film Institute (NFI), supporting documentaries up to 50,000 euro. NFF+HBF Co-production Scheme, supporting features developed through the Hubert Bals Fund with production funding up to 50,000 euro. MDM (Mitteldeutsche MedienfÜrderung) and NFF Children’s film Co-Development Fund supporting the development of original children and youth features up to 10,000 euro for a treatment or re-write, 20,000 euro for a script, 2,500 euro for script coaching and 1,000 euro for translation costs per phase.

2 production incentive The Netherlands Film Production Incentive scheme offers a cash rebate up to 35% of the eligible production costs spent in the Netherlands for feature films, feature length documentaries and feature length animated films and up to 30% for high end TV drama, documentary and animation series and single episodes.
how to access the cash rebate for film productions Applications can be submitted by a production company that has operated consistently in the area of production and release in the Netherlands, the EU, EEA or Switzerland, for at least 2 years. The applicant is legally represented by a producer who, as majority producer has been responsible for at least 2 film productions over the past 7 years. These films must have been theatrically released in the Netherlands. The Netherlands is one of the countries of origin among the co-producers. For feature films and feature-length animated films the minimum production budget is 1 m euro (exceptions to the minimum required budget are possible) and for feature length documentaries 250,000 euro.
The grant can go up to 1,5 m euro per film and is determined by the eligible production costs to be directly spent on parties subject to Dutch taxation, multiplied by 30% cash rebate. For Dutch minority co-productions a cash rebate of 35% can be obtained in case 75% of the digital production costs for a feature film are spent on parties subject to Dutch taxation (feature length documentary: 25%, feature length animated film: 10%). A 35% cash rebate can also be obtained if no other Dutch public funding is part of the financing of the film production. A minimum spend of 100,000 euro is required. The film production should be completely financed within 6 months of the Fund’s decision on an application. 30% advance payment of the contribution is possible after signing the production agreement. Eligible applications are ranked based on a points system. A minimum of 75 points out of 200 is required. For Dutch minority co-productions a theatrical release in the country of origin of the main producer and at least a nontheatrical release in the Netherlands are required. Even after shooting is completed, application is possible for post production activities.
At least 50% of the financing should be committed by third parties upon application. application deadline film productions 2017: 31 Oct ’17 for the 2018 deadlines and the guidelines check filmfund.nl
