All of the images on our gallery are free of charge. This is because we want our images to be shared and syndicated in collateral, editorial and partners’ communications.
There is a cost, however, for the supply of video clips. This is to cover the administration and processing of the clips by our third party supplier. Tourism NT does not benefit financially from the videos we sell. The cost will depend on the number of clips and preferred type of delivery.
