Permit for TV and film shoots
Vienna's public transport system is a popular filming location. Photo and film shoots in the area of the Vienna public transport system must be registered and may be accompanied by our employees. The resulting effort will be charged by us with a fee depending on the requirements.
Shooting on public transport lines is possible from 9am to 2:30pm and after 6pm, on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays from 9am all day. We ask for your understanding that filming that entails operational restrictions is not possible during operating hours.
We are happy to support larger-scale work and fictional formats. Please contact us with sufficient lead time so that we can assess what preparations are necessary.
