Question 1

What is the EIS 400% tax deduction for AI in Singapore?

Accepted Answer

The Enterprise Innovation Scheme (EIS) allows Singapore businesses to claim a 400% tax deduction on up to S$50,000 of qualifying AI expenditure per Year of Assessment (YA 2025-2028). This means for every S$1 spent on qualifying AI tools, you can deduct S$4 from your taxable income, resulting in significant tax savings.

Question 2

What is the Productivity Solutions Grant (PSG) for AI tools?

Accepted Answer

The PSG is a Singapore government grant that provides up to 50% funding support for SMEs adopting pre-approved IT solutions, including AI tools for HR, accounting, and customer support. Eligible businesses must be registered in Singapore with at least 30% local shareholding.

Question 3

Can I claim both PSG and EIS for the same AI tool?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can stack both grants. Use the PSG to get 50% funding for a pre-approved AI solution, then claim the EIS 400% tax deduction on your remaining out-of-pocket expense. This combination can reduce the effective cost of AI adoption by up to 80%.

Question 4

Accepted Answer
