Verify scope and timing first

A bill, an enacted law and an implementing communique are different legal stages. Before applying, check eligible assets, the receiving authority, the deadline and any payment rate against the current Official Gazette text.

Do not automatically carry information from earlier schemes with the same name into a new period. In particular, distinguish company assets from a shareholder's personal assets.

Build a lasting file explaining the source

Keep bank statements, acquisition documents, sales contracts, previous tax returns and transfer instructions in chronological order. A declaration does not automatically remove responsibilities under other legislation concerning the source of an asset.

Decide from the outset whether an asset introduced into a company will be recorded as capital, an advance against capital, a shareholder loan or another account. Good planning starts before the application form.
