  • Freeport & Export Incentives: 3% concessionary corporate income tax rate for Freeport operators and export manufacturing entities meeting local expenditure criteria.
  • EDB Innovation & Startup Schemes: Tax holidays and grants for tech innovations, R&D ventures, and high-value strategic projects.
