Incentives

A range of direct and indirect financial incentives are available to productions shooting in South Australia.

Payroll tax exemption

A payroll tax exemption on eligible productions shot in SA reduces the film’s payroll total by approximately 4.95 per cent. Note that this is an up-front exemption, not a rebate. To be eligible for the exemption, projects must be produced wholly or substantially within South Australia, employ SA residents, and provide significant economic benefits to the State.
