Gujarat Introduces Unified Film Shooting Permit Portal

In a move aimed at easing bureaucratic hurdles for filmmakers, the Gujarat government today unveiled a single online portal that will handle all permit applications for film shoots across the state.
The portal, accessible via the official Gujarat government website, allows production houses to submit required documents, pay fees, and track the status of their applications in real time. It replaces the previous fragmented system where permits were issued by multiple departments.
Officials say the new system will reduce clearance times and attract more film projects to Gujarat, boosting local tourism and the economy.
