Media Fixer & Production

Production & Fixer Services in Nepal and Beyond

Expert Media Support and Production Coordination in the Heart of the Himalayas.

Translating the Majesty of the Himalayas into Cinematic Reality. Your Trusted Local Partner Since 2000.

Introduction

Production Fixer Nepal: Your Essential Partner

Production Fixer Nepal services are the most critical component for any international media house, film crew, or production company planning to shoot in the Himalayas. Navigating the logistical complexities of Nepal requires more than just a guide; it requires a specialized Production Fixer Nepal with deep governmental connections and a profound understanding of the terrain.

Since our inception in 2000, Ghale Treks & Expedition (Liberty Films Division) has served as the indispensable ground partner for international networks like the BBC, TBS Japan, and Discovery. From the oxygen-depleted heights of Everest to the ancient streets of Kathmandu, our team provides the infrastructure that allows your creative crew to focus solely on the lens.

Our Comprehensive Services

We operate as your Local Fixer and Production Coordinator, providing a 360-degree support system for projects of any scale.

Pre-Production & Research

  • Location Scouting (Recce): Identifying the perfect backdrop for your script.
  • Story Research: Sourcing unique local stories and verifying cultural nuances.
  • Government Permits: As your Production Fixer Nepal, we handle the Ministry of Information, National Parks, and Drone permits.

Logistics & Operational Excellence

  • Customs Clearance: Expert handling of temporary import procedures. Note: Nepal is NOT an ATA Carnet member. We manage the bank guarantees and documentation to ensure your gear is not seized at the airport.
  • Air Support: Specialized helicopter charters for aerial filming or high-altitude transport.

Crew & Gear Procurement

  • Local Crew Hire: Experienced bilingual fixers, sound recordists, and drone operators.
  • Equipment Rental: Sourcing heavy-duty gear locally, including cranes and generators.
Nepal is NOT a member of the ATA Carnet system.

Customs & Equipment (Crucial Information)

International production houses should be aware that the “passport for goods” (ATA Carnet) is not recognized in Nepal. Bringing professional equipment across the border without expert local assistance often results in severe delays, equipment seizure at the airport, or exorbitant “import duties.”

The Ghale Treks Advantage:

We specialize in the Temporary Importation Procedure for professional media gear. We manage the entire documentation process, including:

  • Pre-arrival equipment list verification.

  • Liaising with Nepal Customs for duty-free bank guarantee letters.

  • On-site airport clearance (meet-and-greet at the terminal).

  • Ensuring seamless re-exportation of your gear upon completion of the shoot.
