On 11 February 2000 a Co-Production Agreement has been signed between Germany and Spain. It entered into force on 13 December 2000, replacing the preceding agreement of 3 May 1956.

Financial contribution of a co-producer shall be at least 20%. Multilateral co-productions are possible; here the minority participation must not be less than 10% and the majority participation must not exceed 70% of the total production cost.

As an exception, a mere financial participation in a co-production can be approved. In such cases, the level of financial participation must be between 20 and 25%.
