Tax Credits for US Rare Earth Magnet Production

This new law introduces tax credits for companies manufacturing rare earth magnets within the United States. The aim is to support domestic production of these critical components, potentially impacting the availability and cost of products using these magnets, and fostering job creation in the sector. The credits will be phased out after 2030.
Key points
Companies producing rare earth magnets in the US can receive a tax credit of $20 or $30 per kilogram, depending on the origin of the raw materials.
The credit is not applicable if raw materials for magnet production originate from "non-allied foreign nations".
The tax credit program will be gradually phased out starting in 2031 and will completely end after 2033.
Businesses can opt for a direct payment of the credit instead of a tax deduction.
