The Enterprise Development Grant closed on 29 Sep 2026 and new projects now apply under the EDGE Grant. Work out your grant for strategy, finance, product development, overseas expansion, green or standards projects, and the cash you pay before the claim.
From your vendor's quotation.
Old EDG, MRA and PSG grants do not count.
Your EDGE grant
$56,000
70% as an SME
Cash up front
$87,200
including $7,200 GST
Your cost after the claim
$31,200
paid back after you claim
Your group is an SME: sales of S$100 million or less, or 200 workers or fewer. At 70% of $80,000, the grant is $56,000.
EDGE pays back after the project. You pay the vendor in full, GST included, then make a single claim; GST is never supported. For software, CRM, ERP or equipment, use the PSG and EDGE digital grant calculator, which carries the S$30,000 digital cap.

From Enterprise Singapore's EDGE activity pages and FAQ, read 4 Oct 2026. Rates are "up to"; each activity page sets its own supported costs. Overseas staff deployment is 50% for SMEs and 30% for non-SMEs when a foreigner is deployed.
An SME with S$5 million of sales hires a consultant to set up in a new overseas market for S$80,000 before GST. Internationalisation work is supported at up to 70%, so the grant is S$56,000.
The company pays the vendor S$87,200 with GST, claims after the project, and ends up S$31,200 out of pocket. If S$60,000 of EDGE grants were already approved since 1 Apr, the cap would leave S$40,000.
