More than fifty million Americans with disabilities make up a huge, nearly untapped market for businesses of all types and sizes. To help businesses welcome customers with disabilities, the IRS offers two tax incentives to remove access barriers.<\/p>\n

Businesses can take advantage of two Federal tax incentives available to help cover costs of making access improvements for customers with disabilities:<\/p>\n

\u2022 A tax credit for small businesses<\/span> who remove access barriers from their facilities, provide accessible services, or take other steps to improve accessibility for customers with disabilities<\/p>\n

\u2022 A tax deduction for businesses<\/span> of all sizes that remove access barriers in their facilities or vehicles<\/p>\n

A business that annually incurs eligible expenses to bring itself into compliance with the ADA may use these tax incentives every year. The incentives may be applied to a variety of expenditures; however, they may not be applied to the costs of new construction. All barrier removal must comply with applicable Federal accessibility standards.<\/p>\n

Tax Credit <\/span><\/p>\n

Small businesses with 30 or fewer employees or total revenues of $1 million or less can use the Disabled Access Credit (Internal Revenue Code, Section 44). Eligible small businesses may take a credit of up to $5,000 (half of eligible expenses up to $10,250, with no credit for the first $250) to offset their costs for access, including barrier removal from their facilities (e.g., widening a doorway, installing a ramp), provision of accessibility services (e.g., sign language interpreters), provision of printed material in alternate formats (e.g., large-print, audio, Braille), and provision or modification of equipment.<\/p>\n

Tax Incentives Forms and Publications<\/strong>
\nVisit the Internal Revenue Service website at www.irs.gov or call
\n800-829-3676 (voice); 800-829-4059 (TTY) to order the necessary business forms and publications: Form 8826 (Disabled Access Credit)<\/strong> and Publication 535 \u201cBusiness Expenses\u201d (tax deduction)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Tax Deduction<\/span><\/p>\n

Businesses of all sizes may take advantage of this tax deduction. Under Internal Revenue Code, Section 190, businesses can take a business expense deduction of up to $15,000 per year for costs of removing barriers in facilities or vehicles.<\/p>\n

Tax Incentives in Combination<\/span><\/p>\n

These two incentives can be used together by eligible businesses if the expenditures qualify under both Sections 44 and 190. If a small business\u2019 expenses exceed $10,250 for the maximum $5,000 tax credit, then the deduction equals the difference between the total spent and the amount of the credit claimed.<\/p>\n
