What is the Producer Offset?

The Producer Offset is a refundable tax offset (a rebate) calculated on a project’s qualifying Australian production expenditure (QAPE), for:

  • 40% of an applicant’s QAPE for a feature film that was produced for commercial exhibition to the public in cinemas;
  • 30% of an applicant’s QAPE for an otherwise eligible project such as a program produced for television or a subscription service, where the project commenced principal photography on or after 1 July 2021; or
  • 20% of an applicant’s QAPE for an otherwise eligible project such as a program produced for television or a subscription service, where the project commenced principal photography prior to 1 July 2021.

To be eligible for the 40% Producer Offset, your project must be a feature film produced for commercial exhibition to the public in cinemas. See section 3.1.3 of the Producer Offset Guidelines.
