Motion Picture Rating System

Latvia

In Latvia, the film presenters added classification is the same as the one applied by the producers of the film. However, this could change from 2008, because in July 2007 the government of Latvia made a law that indicates a more strict classification policy. The classifications are approved by the National Cinema Center (Latvian: Nacionālais Kino Centrs). There is a new 'refreshed' rating system from July 2007. (The following classifications will operate as of September 2007)

U: rated for all ages (added in July 2007).
7+: Not recommended for viewers younger than 7.
12+: Not recommended for viewers younger than 12.
16+: Not recommended for viewers younger than 16.
18+ (blue): Not recommended for minors.
18+ (red): Prohibited from viewing by minors.
X: Banned from public viewing.
