// Credits & Incentives

What Washington tax breaks does your business qualify for?

Washington has 786 documented tax preferences — most businesses only know the two or three everyone talks about. Select your industry and activities and this tool ranks candidate exemptions, deductions, credits, and preferential rates against your profile, with the RCW citation for each.

Sales & use tax exemptions

Machinery & equipment, data center equipment, and other retail sales tax exemptions matched to your industry.

B&O deductions & credits

Preferential B&O rates and credits — manufacturing, aerospace, workforce training, and more.

Property tax & hiring incentives

Property tax exemptions and hiring/training incentives, grouped separately so you can act on each.

Find Credits & Incentives

Select what your business does and we'll match it against all 786 Washington tax preferences. Nothing you enter is stored.

Industry / activity (select all that apply)

Informational only — the dataset doesn't track eligibility by location, but some preferences (rural, county-specific) may still apply.

How matching works

This tool matches your selected activities against the same 786-preference dataset behind the Exemptions & Deductions Library (the 2024 DOR Tax Exemption Study), using keyword overlap between your profile and each preference's title — deterministic, no AI guessing, nothing you enter is stored. It surfaces candidates for you to review, not a certified eligibility determination.

Found something promising? Run your actual transactions through the Tax Refund Engine to see if you've already overpaid, or ask Delphi to research whether a specific preference applies to your facts.
