Incentive programs

Incentives programs in Germany are available through different public funding instruments and for different funding purposes. 

Each incentives program defines industries as well as forms of investments (e.g. greenfield projects or expansions) eligible for funding. 

Each program has also a set of criteria (such as company size, planned investment project location, etc.) which determine individual investment project incentive levels. Foreign investors are subject to exactly the same conditions available to German investors. 

Incentives support ranges from cash incentives to labor-related and R&D incentives. Find out how your investment project can benefit from public funding.
