Vermont and the R&D Tax Credit
The Vermont R&D Tax Credit indefinitely encourages local innovation for eligible corporations and flow-through entities. To qualify, businesses must incur qualified research expenses directly within Vermont and must first claim the federal R&D tax credit. The state incentive is generously calculated as twenty-seven percent of the federal credit amount for those specific Vermont-based expenditures. Taxpayers can apply this credit against their personal income tax or their business and corporate income tax liabilities. Providing significant long-term financial benefits, any unused credits can be carried forward for up to ten years, allowing growing companies to maximize their investments in future technological advancements.
