Places whose own article says it was shot there
2 places whose own Wikipedia article names this series as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this series’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

Nuevos Ministerios Spain
“The building is used in the third and fourth seasons of the series Money Heist (La Casa de Papel in Spanish), in which it is being used as the Bank of Spain.” Wikipedia

Nairobi Kenya
“Nairobi inspired the nicknaming of the character Ágata Jiménez as 'Nairobi; a fictional character in the Netflix series Money Heist, portrayed by Alba Flores.” Wikipedia
Recorded only at country level
Wikidata also records this series as shot in Palawan, Thailand, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable — a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote — so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
