RELATING TO THE MOTION PICTURE, DIGITAL MEDIA, AND FILM PRODUCTION INCOME TAX CREDIT.

Summary

The bill increases the state’s motion‑picture, digital media, and film production income tax credit rates, lifts per‑project and annual caps, and adds streaming platforms to the list of qualified productions. It also requires an independent third‑party certification and annual reporting of local hires. The changes aim to make Hawaii more attractive for larger and newer types of media projects while extending the credit program’s sunset date.
