The standard Investment Deduction is applied automatically by your accountant for standard investments. The Enhanced Investment Deduction concerns investments with a positive environmental impact or related to R&D with a minimum neutral environmental impact. It offers significantly higher deduction rates (up to 40% vs 8% for standard) but requires a comprehensive technical file and prior validation from the tax authorities. 60% of companies miss out because they lack the necessary technical expertise.

To benefit from the Enhanced Investment Deduction on your 2025 investments, the technical file must be submitted to the tax authorities before 31 March 2026 (3 months after the fiscal year end for most companies). After this date, you permanently lose the ability to deduct these investments from your 2025 taxable base. This is why we must act now to identify your eligible investments and prepare the file on time.

ABV supports Belgian companies with 50 to 900 employees, making sustainable investments (energy efficiency, water treatment, green equipment) or conducting R&D projects in sectors such as industry, life sciences, chemistry or engineering. If you invested more than €500K in 2025 in these areas, we can very likely maximize your Enhanced Investment Deduction.

ABV distinguishes itself through its technical approach, not purely fiscal. Our teams combine engineers and PhDs specialized in innovation and environmental matters with tax experts. Unlike competing firms that often use junior profiles or staff rotation, ABV guarantees total stability: you work with the same senior consultant from start to finish. Our “no cure, no pay*” model eliminates all financial risk for your company.

Yes – it’s our absolute priority. For over 25 years, ABV has supported Belgian companies in optimizing their tax incentives with an exemplary compliance track record. Our senior consultants maintain regular relationships with the tax authorities and are thoroughly familiar with legislative changes (DPI rules evolved again between 2025 and 2026). We guarantee that every file strictly meets regulatory requirements.

We only invoice our services in case of success: if we do not obtain funding for you, you pay nothing apart from a retainer. This means the financial risk for your company is close to zero. Our fees are calculated solely on the amounts actually obtained, fully aligning our interests with yours.
