If your production or activity includes children under school leaving age you may need a licence to ensure your child's safety and wellbeing are protected.
Productions and activities include:
- television
- theatre
- modelling
- sport
Before you apply
Applications must be received at least 21 days before the production takes place.
For amateur productions, where a group of children are not being paid for taking part, a body of persons approval can be sought instead of applying for individual licences.
For further information on the licence and when it is required, see Young Performers: A Guide for Parents and Guardians on gov.scot.
