Business Incentives

Tax Incentives Ease the Cost of Doing Business

Start-up costs are a big issue for companies looking to invest in new locations. Hawaii has a package of very attractive tax and other incentives to help lower your Kapolei operating costs. Check out how you can add to your bottom line.

Foreign Trade Zone (www.ftz9.org)

The FTZ lies outside U.S. Customs territory, and is free of US import restrictions, and most state and local use and excise taxes. James Campbell Industrial Park in Kapolei, Hawaii is a designated FTZ. The FTZ program benefits companies that import and export dutiable components and products. In many cases, these companies are able to substantially reduce their customs and tax liabilities by participating in this
program.

Oahu Enterprise

Zone (hawaii.gov) Kapolei is a designated Oahu enterprise zone, which means that eligible businesses can take advantage of state excise tax exemptions and income tax credits and local tax incentives in some cases for the first seven years of operation.
