Kultūras ministrija proposes new regulations requiring streaming platforms to invest in local Latvian film and series production. These requirements would apply to both locally registered providers and EU-based services targeting the Latvian audience. The proposed law mandates that providers invest at least 3.5% of their annual Latvian revenue into local content, either by purchasing distribution rights or contributing directly to the National Film Center (NKC) budget. This initiative aims to boost high-quality audiovisual content in the Latvian language and increase its accessibility. Currently, 26 services are registered in Latvia, while approximately 80 other EU-based platforms, including Netflix and Disney+, operate in the market. If implemented, these changes could bring an estimated 600,000 euros annually to the NKC. The final decision regarding these legislative amendments rests with the Saeima.
