Film Production Tax Credit

Minnesota's Film Production Tax Credit provides an assignable 25% income tax credit to production companies that expend at least $1,000,000 in a consecutive 12-month period for eligible production costs. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis, and allocations are made on a first-come, first-served basis until the program's available funding has been fully allocated. Tax Credit Certificates are issued for the taxable year in which the twelfth month of the consecutive 12-month period lands.

DEED no longer administers the Film Production Tax Credit Program. A new office has been created under Explore Minnesota. Please visit their website.
