More Info:
The Arizona Motion Picture Production Program goes into effect in 2023. To be eligible for the tax credit, producers must shoot their film or television show primarily in Arizona, conduct pre- and post-production in the state, and hire Arizona workers to work as crew in the production. An extra 2.5% tax credit on production labor costs is provided for positions held by Arizona residents. The program also provides cash refunds for production companies if the credits are larger than the amount of taxes paid in Arizona.
