WHAT IS A COPRODUCTION?

An audiovisual work produced by Canadian and foreign coproducers in accordance with an international Coproduction Agreement (Treaty or MOU) signed between countries. Projects recognized as such can get benefits and advantages, including tax credits, broadcast commitments, and access to most types of funding available to Canadian producers.

Another way

If your country doesn’t have an official coproduction treaty with Canada, we can still work together. By engaging in a Canadian co-venture, international producers may access to Canadian tax credits and Canadian broadcast license fees.
