Contract Management Services
Expert handling of production contracts and legal documentation.
Contract management in Peruvian film production covers the drafting, negotiation, and administration of agreements with crew, talent, vendors, locations, and rights holders. DAFO (Dirección del Audiovisual, la Fonografía y los Nuevos Medios) regulations, Peruvian labor law, and the Ley de Cine provisions all require careful navigation to ensure productions operate within Peru legal and regulatory frameworks.
We provide contract management support that addresses the specific legal and administrative needs of your production in Peru. Our team coordinates with local entertainment lawyers familiar with DAFO compliance, Peruvian labor code, and the permitting requirements for filming at archaeological and cultural heritage sites around Cusco, Machu Picchu, and Lima historic center.

Contract paperwork built around DAFO and Peruvian labour code
Here is how this works in practice. Contract running for Peruvian productions sits at the intersection of the Ley de la Cinematografía Peruana (Law 26370), DAFO's grant and recognition regime, Peru's general labour code under SUNAFIL oversight, and the IGV value-added-tax obligations that touch every vendor invoice. Our team sets up with Lima-based entertainment lawyers who run the contract files for Tondero Producciones, Big Bang Films, and the wider commercial work scene, and who know the nuances of Andean Community member-state labour rules for crew imported from Colombia, Bolivia, Ecuador, Chile, and Argentina.
Here is the short of it. We draft crew agreements aligned to local rates, talent contracts that respect ANACTP performer conventions and SIAE-equivalent rights handling, vendor service agreements, and location releases for shoots at sites under Ministerio de Cultura, INC, SERNANP, or city jurisdiction — including the strict heritage filming agreements Machu Picchu, Chan Chan, and Caral need before production can step onto site.
Here is the breakdown. Our process starts with a contract needs scan against the script, schedule, and locations. We identify every agreement the production needs — crew deals, talent contracts, location releases, gear rentals, post-prod vendor agreements, co-production paperwork tied to Peru's bilateral treaties with Argentina, Spain, Brazil, and the Ibermedia regional fund — and prepare a master schedule that tracks signature, payment milestones, and rights handovers. Standard agreements turn around in twenty-four hours; tricky co-production or distribution contracts take two to five business days through partner counsel.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Risk reviews cover SUNAFIL labour code compliance, IGV invoicing structure, heritage-site indemnities, force-majeure clauses calibrated to altitude and weather realities in the Andes and Amazon, and dispute resolution under Peruvian civil code. Every contract is stored centrally with version control, so the production reaches principal photography with a paper trail that holds up to financier and insurer scrutiny.
