Corporate Profile
The Fiji Audio Visual Commission is a statutory corporation committed to developing and promoting the audio visual industry in Fiji. It is Fiji's first film commission and member of the Association of Film Commissioners International.
The FAVC was established in 2001, with Chairman Mr Joe Mar, introducing some of the best tax incentives in the world to embrace film, TV, video, music, IT and e-commerce projects. The first international company to take advantage of these was Sony Pictures.
In 2004 (then Prime Minister), Hon. Laisenia Qarase handed the equivalent of FJD$3.75 million dollars, based on their substantial expenditure in Fiji on the production of Anacondas II. The venture brought wide benefits to Fiji’s economy, and to a large number of locals.
