Post Invest Services
Post Approval/Post Licensing
MIDA’s Investment Compliance Division is one of the most critical element in the complete cycle of the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Domestic Direct Investment (DDI) to promote, facilitate and assist manufacturing and services companies in the implementation and operations of their projects after the approval of manufacturing license and/or incentive.
MIDA via Investment Compliance Division evaluates post licensing applications under the Industrial Coordination Act (ICA), 1975, the Promotion of Investments Act (PIA), 1986 and the Income Tax Act (ITA), 1967.
For projects which have been approved with tax incentives, companies are required to submit Post Incentive Applications to MIDA to determine the Effective Date of the incentives and Verification of Compliance’s conditions before they can proceed to claim the tax incentive from the Inland Revenue Board (IRB).
