Joining Pact FAQs
- What types of company are not eligible to join Pact?
  
  There are a number of entities that are not eligible to join Pact. These are:
  
  Non-trading companies
  We can only accept applications from companies that can sufficiently demonstrate they are actively trading, or intending to trade, within the independent production sector in the UK. As such we are unable to accept applications from dormant or non-trading companies.
  
  Conflict of interest
  We are unable to accept applications from companies where they may be a conflict of interest – such as talent agencies. These are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
  
  Risk to IP
  Companies that provide certain services to the industry may not be eligible for membership where there is a risk that our IP, such as template contracts and agreements, may be shared with production companies that are not Pact Members. These are assessed on a case-by-case basis.
- I want to register a Film or high-end TV production with Pact. Do I still need to apply for company membership?
  
  The type of registration or membership you require is dependent on the type of production, and where your company is based. Find out more on our Production Registrations page.
- I am an individual working as a freelancer in film and TV, can I join Pact?
  
  As a trade association we only accept membership applications from trading companies, not individuals. You might like to try a creative industry trade union instead, such as Bectu, WGGB, Equity or The Production Guild.
