The opportunity
Why this funding is worth exploring
The incentive reduces the financial burden of the investment and accelerates projects already planned by the business.
Less tax to pay
Part of productive investment can be deducted from tax due, within each scheme's limits.
Use what you already invested
Unlike grants, several tax schemes apply to investment already carried out.
Complements applications
Tax incentives can often be combined with grants, respecting cumulation rules.
Who can apply
- Companies with organised accounting and corporate tax liability
- Relevant investment in assets used in the business
- Tax and Social Security compliance
- Retention of the investment and jobs for the period required by each scheme
What can be considered
- Equipment and tangible fixed assets used in operations
- Intangible assets such as software and technology transfer
- Research and development expenditure, under specific schemes
- Job creation linked to the investment
- Investment in regions with regional uplifts, where applicable
