ATA Carnets Are Essential to International Production and Creative Screen Industries

Friday, February 23, 2024

Option the Boomerang Benefit for your next international project!

Boomerang carnets® Media provides ATA Carnets to the creative screen industries in both the United States and United Kingdom.  International shoots frequently use creative teams, crews, and equipment from both countries converging in various parts of the world for production.  As the only ATA Carnet provider able to offer this dual-country convenience to customers, our role is key. 

ATA Carnets are well known in the industry as an essential part of your kit because, when it comes to international productions, they provide significant cost savings and facilitate ease clearing customs with your equipment.  Convenience, Expertise, and Savings are essential to international production shoots, projects, and events.

The ATA Carnet is an internationally accepted customs document for temporarily exported equipment, merchandise, or goods.  It allows for cross border movement of equipment import-duty and -tax free into 87+ carnet countries and territories for up to a year.  Presenting an ATA Carnet to Customs makes clearance of your equipment easier, saving you valuable time.  ATA Carnets are used for camera bodies, lenses, tripods, lighting equipment, drones, UAVs, monitors, hard drives, computers, batteries, sets, props, costumes, and a lot more.
