Inventory Tax Exemption Incentives

DeKalb County exempts up to 100 percent of inventory of the qualified product of a company from property tax under Georgia’s local-option “freeport” law. Raw material, work-in-process and finished goods inventory can all be exempted in DeKalb county. Distribution centers and warehouse inventories are exempt from property taxes if the inventory is destined to be shipped out of the state.

Georgia businesses pay no state property taxes on inventory held in their factories and warehouses. In many Georgia counties, inventory is exempt from local property taxes as well. For more information about the incentives offered by The Development Authority of DeKalb County, call us at 404-687-2730, or contact us via our contact us page.
