ARTTIC’s research allowance calculator for industrial research
Online calculator for initial estimate of reimbursable expenses for industrial research.
Visitors to the website https://www.arttic-innovation.de/forschungszulagengesetz/forschungszulagenrechner/ can find out here, with just a few clicks, how much legal entitlement they may have to the research allowance on expenses for personnel and contract research. The research allowance is available to any company that engages in innovation and research in Germany and pays taxes in Germany. A prerequisite for the allowance is a certification of the project by one of the certifying bodies. The latter examines the application on the basis of the rules of the OECD’s Frascati Manual, which determine what counts as research and development, and according to the provisions of the Research Grants Act.
“Our calculator is designed to show companies, with just a few clicks of the mouse, how much the grant for a research project can be. We then want to help companies get the money they are entitled to,” explains Anne Baumgärtel, Team Lead ARTTIC Innovation GmbH.
ARTTIC Innovation is one of the leading consulting firms on the Research Grants Act and assists research-based companies of all sizes and from all industries with the application process. ARTTIC is based on the experience of the PNO group of companies from thousands of successful applications of its clients in the very different European and national programs for economic development.
ARTTIC Innovation GmbH has been advising on research funding applications at European, national and regional level for 33 years and is intimately familiar with the OECD’s Frascati Manual on which the new research allowance in Germany is based. For more information on tax incentives for research and development via the new research allowance law, please visit the website of ARTTIC Innovation GmbH.
