Export Incentives, Duty Drawbacks and Special Economic Zone Tax Benefits

Governments offer incentives to exporters and to businesses operating in special economic zones, from duty drawbacks to reduced tax rates. These benefits are underused because the qualifying rules are complex. This course shows how to identify and claim them.

What you will be able to do

  • Identify export and zone incentives available to a business
  • Assess eligibility against the qualifying conditions
  • Claim duty drawbacks and rebates on inputs
  • Structure operations to access zone tax benefits
  • Maintain the records the incentives require
