Equipment Rental Insurance for Across the Boarder

[Paul Nordin]

I've got a feature shoot coming up in 6 weeks and need to find a good insurance company that will issue certificates to rental houses. This is the first production I'll do in Mexico (I'm based in San Francisco), and my normal insurance company does not issue policies for productions that cross the border. I'm sure this is a common thing in LA, but not up here in SF. I'd appreciate any recomendations or leads.

 

Cheers,

Paul Nordin

I havent heard of many insurance companies who insure accross boarder. Either there is a law preventing it, or the different regs and risk levels make it an unatractive place to do business too. Your best bet is to find production insurance in the country you plan to shoot in. They would have the best rates and can set you up.
