Scientific Research & Development (SR&ED)
35% funding for R&D, innovation, and technology development to boost your business.
One of the largest tax incentive programs available to a wide range of Canadian businesses Access up to 69% of labour and overhead costs, 36% of contractor costs, and 45% of material costs
Canada
The goal of the Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) tax incentives program is to encourage businesses in Canada to engage in research and development (R&D) activities by offering them financial benefits. These incentives are available to corporations, individuals, trusts, and partnerships conducting SR&ED work within Canada. The primary benefits include the ability to claim a deduction against income and earn an Investment Tax Credit (ITC) that can be applied against income tax payable. The ITC can be at a basic rate of 15%, with some corporations eligible for an enhanced rate of 35%. Additionally, some businesses may receive a refundable ITC. The program is structured to allow participants to calculate their allowable SR&ED expenditures and use these to reduce their net income for the current or future tax years. Partnerships involved in SR&ED can allocate the ITC earned to their eligible partners. It's important to note that other government funding for R&D, such as NRC IRAP or provincial and territorial R&D tax credits, can impact the amount of ITC a business can earn by reducing the eligible SR&ED expenditures. Businesses must report any additional funding or assistance in their SR&ED claim. The program aims to make R&D more financially viable and attractive, fostering innovation and technological advancement in Canada.
