Research and development?
Recover up to 38% of costs.

Who is it for?

The same expense – up to three times in costs

The ebadu.R&D service is designed for companies conducting research and development and incurring related costs: salaries, patent fees, expert opinions, advisory services or equipment needed for research.

Qualified costs of R&D activity, even if already included in company costs (at once or through depreciation), can be deducted again from the tax base at twice their value. The result: a refund of up to 38% of qualified costs.
