The Mississippi Development Authority works with international companies and arms them with the information and resources necessary to make sound business decisions. Incentive Offerings Statewide Site Selection assistance
Incentive programmes
Tax Credit
Mississippi’s new tax incentive, the Mississippi Flexible Tax Incentive (MFLEX), is a streamlined universal tax credit that may be used to offset a company’s Mississippi state tax liabilities. MFLEX is designed to better meet the needs of new and expanding businesses by offering more flexibility than the state’s current tax incentive offerings, and businesses applying for MFLEX will appreciate the simplicity of the application process. MFLEX eliminates the need for multiple applications for incentive programs, and it provides greater transparency to companies and state stakeholders regarding the value of credits awarded. New companies locating in Mississippi and existing businesses looking to create new jobs and investment in the state are eligible. Planned capital investment must exceed $2.5 million and a company must create more than 10 jobs to qualify. Flexible incentives tailored to meet your company’s needs. Streamlined credit to apply to your tax liability. One stop application with the Mississippi Development Authority..
