NATIONAL PARKS & MONUMENTS

The National Park administers three national historical parks and ten national monuments in New Mexico. It is the policy of the National Park Service to encourage production to the fullest extent possible consistent with the protection of the park resources and ensuring the enjoyment of those resources by the visiting public. National Park Service Commercial Filming permits are issued by each individual Park Superintendent. A two-week application reviewing period is requested. The application process entails a $100.00 non-refundable application fee, a possible performance bond (depending on the extent of the shoot), and a minimum $100.00 per day location fee. Other costs may include the payment of Park Rangers to monitor production.

For more information you may call the New Mexico Film Office or contact the Park Superintendent at the following locations:
