International Film Production Support in Bangladesh

International production support in Bangladesh is the local lead a flying-in producer actually needs: invitation letters, a permit file, a driver plan that matches the call sheet, and one WhatsApp thread that answers at 06:00. Azizul Hoque Shiplu offers that from Dhaka. Indicative 2026 professional fees: USD 2,800–9,500 for a visiting unit, depending on days and cities — not a house "full production" bundle.

Who this is for

Producers in Los Angeles, London, Dubai, Mumbai or Singapore who will not be in the ministry queue themselves. You keep your director and key creative. He holds the Bangladesh side so the unit can move.

Jobs of this type he has already run

  • Visiting music-video support for a Los Angeles unit in Bangladesh — street and location movement, not a studio package.
  • Corporate AV support for a multinational RMG brief in Mymensingh — factory access and unit logistics.
  • On-ground management for a visiting international TVC director (Hero Bangladesh Eid) — talent, base and day-to-day control.
  • Ongoing Bangladesh news collection support for an international 24/7 news channel — speed, not a commercial unit.
  • INGO clinic documentation — patient-story filming that needed consent, clinic hours and a quiet set.

What you send before tickets

Passport names, a one-page treatment, cities, a kit list if you carry, drone yes/no, and whether anyone on the unit needs a journalist-category visa. Incomplete files stall. Complete files still take weeks, not days.

Frequently asked questions

What does international production support cost?

Most visiting units land between USD 2,800 and USD 9,500 for his professional lead. Local crew, transport, locations and ministry fees are extra.

Can you issue a visa invitation?

A registered local company can issue an invitation letter that a visa desk will recognise. He coordinates that letter. He does not control the embassy.

Do you replace our producer?

No. You keep your producer. He is the Bangladesh producer/fixer so your producer is not guessing at a factory gate.

English-speaking crew?

Key roles can work in English. Drivers and location minders often will not. That is expected and planned.

Can you also direct?

Yes, as a separate line. Do not assume the fixer fee includes picture.

Insurance and drones?

Tell him in the first note. Drone days have their own permissions. Insurance certificates from overseas still need a local read.

How is this different from film fixer?

Fixer is the on-ground hat. This page is written for the overseas producer who also needs letters, a landing plan and a single accountable local name.

Where are you based?

Dhaka. Units fly into DAC. Up-country days are scheduled from that desk.
