Basic Guidelines

- Freelance writers need to provide two recently published travel-related clips from an audited outlet, published within the last calendar year, for the request to be considered.
- While we welcome the opportunity to work with television and film productions, SouthWest Germany cannot arrange any work visas or filming permits. Film crews must also have Public Liability Insurance to be able to film in many locations in SouthWest Germany.
