Finland: Proposed tax credit for investments supporting green transition
Corporate income tax credit for large-scale industrial investments
The government on September 16, 2024, released a draft proposal for a corporate income tax credit for large-scale industrial investments supporting the transition to a net-zero economy.
- The credit would equal 20% of qualifying costs (capped at €150 million per group) provided that the qualifying costs amount to at least €50 million per facility.
- Taxpayers would need to apply by 2025, with credits granted by the end of that year. A maximum of 10% of the credit would be usable against the annual corporate income tax liability between tax years 2028 and 2047 (i.e., the credit can be used over a maximum period of 20 years).
Comments on the proposal were due by October 11, 2024.
