Kauai is a world class destination for film, television and advertising production. Check out our locations, from the beautiful, iconic Napali Coastline to breathtaking natural vistas, rivers, picturesque ranches and farmland, and small towns seemingly frozen in time.
Kauai offers a robust 27% Film Tax Credit with a minimum of $100,000 in production spend.

To fill out an online permit application, please go to connect.kauai.gov. It is highly recommended that you email me at skaauwai@kauai.gov prior to submitting a permit, to ensure that the property that you will be filming at falls under County jurisdiction. Many of the desired properties fall under the State of Hawaii Film Office. Information about filming on State Property can be found at https://filmoffice.hawaii.gov/.
