INNOVATION INCOME DEDUCTION

Our value proposition:

We kick-off with an introduction call to get an initial view on the relevant facts at hand, as well as to discuss our preliminary thoughts on possibilities for your company. This call is free of charge.

Next, we will prepare a tailored project approach for your company which generally consists of the following steps (we follow a sequential process in view of efficiency):

  • Step 1: More in depth fact-gathering and high level financial/economic assessment of the potential tax benefits
  • Step 2: Determine value attributable to the IP right and perform a detailed financial/economic assessment of benefits.
  • Step 3: Drafting of a memorandum describing the analysis performed. This document can be used as a defense in case of a potential tax audit on the topic
  • Optional: Assist you in obtaining an advance decision for the Belgian Service for Advance Decisions. Such “ruling” will provide tax certainty in terms of methodology for the application of the IID for 3 consecutive tax years with the option to renew.
