Federal Government Grants

The Federal Government’s Export Market Development Grants (EMDG) Scheme provides $150 million per year to assist over 3000 exporters to offset certain overseas export marketing costs. These eligible expenses may include:

  • exhibition fee
  • overseas representation
  • an allowance for airfares and accommodation
  • communication costs
  • product samples/promotion costs
  • literature and advertising
  • the costs of engaging short-term marketing consultants in Australia and/or overseas

Around 65 per cent of companies that receive the grant have annual turnovers of less than $5 million.
