Procedure details
Description
Film and television recordings of state-owned buildings and facilities as well as photographic recordings require permission. Exceptions to this are recordings of buildings and facilities located on public roads, paths or squares (Section 59 of the Copyright Act) and recordings for private purposes on a small scale.
Permission may not be granted if the recordings would endanger state property, impair official interests or cause an unacceptable hindrance to general visitor traffic. If the model contracts provided by Immobilien Freistaat Bayern are used, the specific local authorities are generally responsible for granting permission. In case of doubt, you can contact the responsible regional representative of Immobilien Freistaat Bayern (contact details at www.immobilien.bayern.de).
Requirements
The Free State of Bavaria is not liable for damages incurred by the sponsor of the recording. The sponsor of the recordings undertakes to bear all personal injury and property damage arising in connection with the recording activity. This does not apply if the damage was caused intentionally or through gross negligence by employees or vicarious agents of the Free State of Bavaria.
The organizer of the admission undertakes to observe the fire police and other regulations and to provide evidence of sufficient liability insurance, insofar as this is deemed necessary by the approval authorities.
Permission may be revoked at any time for good cause, in particular if the interests of the service so require. The approval authority is responsible for the revocation. In the event of an objection, the sponsor of the recordings shall not be entitled to any claims for damages against the Free State of Bavaria.
Fees
The approval of film and television recordings is subject to an agreement on reasonable compensation for use and reimbursement of the costs incurred by the state. An authorization fee is not charged.
Compensation for use
Compensation for use is not charged
- for current affairs reporting,
- for photo reports,
- for reports in which there is a public interest, in particular for historical reasons,
- for films made by the Hochschule für Fernsehen und Film and comparable state or state-funded institutions.
Compensation for use shall also be waived for the following recordings:
- Recordings of a small scale
- recordings that serve as appropriate advertising for the Free State of Bavaria or for state institutions.
When deciding which fee is appropriate, the licensing authority must take into account the extent of the use and the extent of the resulting complications as well as the historical and artistic value of the objects photographed.
Reimbursement of costs
Reimbursement of costs is charged for all expenses and loss of income caused by the recording. This includes, in particular, the management costs (electricity consumption, heating, cleaning), insofar as they are not paid directly by the sponsor of the admissions, the reimbursement of expenses for employees who supervise, advise and instruct the admission staff (wages, salaries, etc.) as well as the reimbursement of any loss of admission fees and the like. Only minor costs may be waived if they are likely to be manifestly disproportionate to the administrative effort required to determine them.
