The Federal Government’s Export Market Development Grant (EMDG) is a program to encourage more Australian businesses to export.
As Australia’s only national advisors, we can help you get the maximum grant you are entitled to.
The incentive is that eligible businesses will receive funding based on their level of overseas marketing spend. The program is non-competitive, and if you are eligible and have the right documents you will receive a grant. The pool of funds is currently $157.9 million per annum, and most industries and services are eligible.
It provides funding of approximately 50% of eligible marketing expenses with the maximum grant being $150,000 per annum (subject to available funding).
This is the last year of the rebate program which provides a cash refund of approximately 50% of eligible international marketing expenses you paid last Financial Year (20/21).
If you are a first time Applicant you can claim for the past 2 Financial Years.
New rules for marketing spend from July 2021 onwards.
Grant approvals for up to 50% of your planned international marketing spend. Greater up front funding certainty with grant agreements specifying the amount to be funded each year over 2 or 3 years.
