R&D tax relief

The relief for research and development (R&D) activities consists in the possibility of additional deduction from the tax base of costs incurred for development and innovation work.
Grażyna Janowicz supports businesses in the safe and practical application of R&D tax relief, combining tax knowledge with many years of experience as a manufacturing company implementing research and development projects.

R&D relief can provide significant tax benefits, but only if it is properly identified, documented and accounted for.

R&D tax relief from the company's perspective

The experience gained from a manufacturing company allows us to look at the R&D tax relief not as a theoretical construct, but as a process that must function in everyday practice – in production, technology, accounting and finance.

In practice, this meant, among other things:

  • identification of research and development activities in the enterprise,

  • cooperation with technical and production departments,

  • implementation of R&D cost accounting,

  • current settlement of R&D tax relief in CIT,

  • preparation of documentation for inspection purposes,

  • contact with tax authorities and control institutions.

This experience translates into practical and safe support for entrepreneurs .

Who can benefit from R&D relief?

R&D relief is available to companies conducting research and development activities, in particular:

  • manufacturing companies developing new or improved products,

  • enterprises implementing new technologies and processes,

  • entities carrying out development and prototyping work,

  • companies investing in process automation and optimization.

In practice, many enterprises do not identify their activities as R&D , even though they meet the statutory criteria.
