Production companies must apply for the Special Filming Certificate (SPP Khas) from the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (Finas) before they are allowed to conduct studio filming activities without an audience. Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah said apart from an approval of the SPP Khas application, all production personnel involved have to undergo Covid-19 screening tests before the results are submitted to Finas three days before the filming date.
