SIFIDE is the System of Tax Incentives in Research and Business Development, a tax instrument that aims to increase the competitiveness of companies by supporting their efforts in Research & Development (R&D) activities.
This incentive allows companies to deduct up to 82.5% of R&D (Research and Development) expenses from the amount of the collection.
For companies that do not conduct R&D activities internally, they can benefit from this tax incentive through R&D Investment Funds.
This means that the amount invested in these funds, recognised by the ANI (National Innovation Agency), can be included in the application to SIFIDE and thus benefit from the tax incentive in irc, which can amount to 82.5% of the amount invested.
