- Ask your accountant how it interacts with other concessions before you rely on it.
Space Concession: common questions
Who can apply for Space Concession?
Businesses setting up a space project that need to import eligible high-tech goods.
How much is Space Concession worth?
Duty-free tariffs on eligible imported goods for use in a space project.
When does Space Concession close?
Closing date not stated. Check the official page for the current round.
Can sole traders apply for Space Concession?
No. Space Concession needs a company or other incorporated entity, so sole traders can't apply as they are. Incorporating changes your tax and legal position, so talk to your accountant first.
Is there an application form?
Usually not. Tax concessions are generally claimed in your tax return or through the provider's own form, so your tax agent is the right person to help.
