• Incentives:
  New York State has many incentive programs for relocation and investment. Your business could qualify to become tax-free if it expands in or relocates to one of New York State's 62 Empire Zones (formerly Economic Development Zones).

New York State's Empire Zones (EZs) are designated areas throughout the State that offer special incentives to encourage economic development, business investment and job creation. Certified businesses located within a designated zone are eligible to receive significant tax credits and benefits. EZs are comprised of abundant vacant land, existing prime industrial and commercial buildings, skilled workers and ample power and water resources.

Empire Zones are located throughout the ten-county Hudson River Valley Region.
