Jordan has, in recent decades, established itself as an attractive destination for filmmaking for a number of reasons: its variety of locations, infrastructure, sunny weather, governmental support for the film industry, straightforward administrative procedures and financial incentives. A cash rebate is available, which varies between 10% and 25%, depending on spend, and productions are exempt from Jordanian taxes. Combined with the cash rebate, this means that productions may recoup up to 56%.
