Eligible companies may apply for Micro Invest Tax Credits on investments made during 2016 until 31 May 2017 at 1600hrs.
These tax credits are aimed at micro businesses. Related or “linked” enterprises with common shareholders or voting rights are therefore seen as a “single undertaking” for the purposes of eligibility. For avoidance of doubt this includes “start-ups” as defined by Incentive Guidelines.
Eligible expenditure includes:
- Costs incurred between 1 January and 31 December 2016;
- Increased wage costs;
- Furbishing and refurbishing costs;
- Investments in machinery, technology or equipment enhancing the operations;
- Certain motor vehicles;
- Costs above that are properly supported by the documentation required by the Incentive Guidelines;
