Learn about the incentives: the Cash Rebate

The implementation of Law 4487/2017 was a decisive step towards attracting investment through the production of films, television series, documentaries, animation, and digital games in Greece.

Since September 2018 (Law 4563/2018) until recently, the rebate amounted to 35% on the eligible expenses incurred in Greece. The updated legislation (Law 4704/2020) raises the cash rebate to 40%, provides a more flexible floor for TV series (€15,000-€25,000 per episode), a new minimum for digital games (€30,000), and includes documentaries (€60,000), short films with a minimum of €60,000, while projects are financed without a cap (the higher the investment capital, the higher the cash rebate). Furthermore, the Greek cash rebate can now serve as collateral for producers to obtain funds through the Greek banking system.

Financing of the rebate is guaranteed through the Greek Public Investment Programme and amounts to €75 million available for the years 2018 to 2022. From April 2018 to April 2021, 125 applications have been included in the cash rebate programme (65 domestic and 60 international productions). The total of invested capital in the country amounts to €127 million while the total cash rebate subsidy amounts to €46 million.
