Examples of Eligible Costs for WBSO

Q: What types of labor costs are eligible for WBSO?

Eligible labor costs include salaries of employees directly involved in R&D activities, such as scientists, engineers, and technicians. Administrative or indirect labor costs do not qualify.

Q: Can travel expenses be claimed under WBSO?

Travel expenses are generally not considered eligible under WBSO unless they are directly tied to the R&D project. General business travel or unrelated travel costs are not covered.

Eligible costs under the WBSO scheme include various types of expenses directly related to your R&D activities. Here are some examples:

Labor Costs: Salaries of employees who are directly involved in R&D activities. These must be for employees who are specifically engaged in the research and development work, not general administrative roles.

Material Costs: Costs for specific materials used in R&D projects. This does not include general office supplies or indirect costs but is strictly for resources that are necessary for the R&D work.

Depreciation of Equipment: Depreciation costs for equipment used in R&D activities. The full purchase price of equipment cannot be claimed, only the depreciation value over time as it is used for research purposes.

Outsourced R&D: Costs associated with subcontracting R&D work to third-party organizations or research institutions. This is allowed if the third party contributes directly to the project's development.

Patent and Licensing Fees: Costs related to obtaining patents or licenses specifically for the technologies developed in the R&D project can be included. These must be directly tied to the project outcome.

Please note: Certain costs, such as general travel expenses or overhead costs, are not typically covered under the WBSO scheme.
