Novelties introduced by the law on support for entrepreneurship
The "Ley de apoyo al emprendedor y su internacionalización" provides for the possibility of applying the deductions for R&D&I 3 million per year, albeit at a discount rate of 20% compared to the initially planned amount of the deduction.
Tax deductions for R&D&I activities are regulated by Royal Decree 4/2004 of 5 March 2004, revised text of the LIS, art. 35, amended by Law 35/2006 of 28 November 2006.
Advantages of R&D&I deductions
- Irrespective of the size of the company and its sector of activity.
- Possibility to recover between 12% and 59% of the project's deductible expenses.
- Possibility of requesting the crediting of deductions in case of insufficient quota (companies in loss or with accumulated tax credit).
- Immediate financial effect in the corresponding fiscal year on Net Income and Equity.
- It respects the autonomy of decision making for the R&D&I strategy as it does not prioritise some projects over others as all would be eligible for deduction.
- Reduction of the corporate tax liability proportional to the R&D&I activity.
- Compatible with public aid and the Patent Box incentive.
- Possibility to reduce corporate income tax and accumulate a tax credit for up to 18 years.
- Maximum legal certainty if you opt for the management of the binding Reasoned Report, after certification by an ENAC-accredited entity.
