International Tax

The business trend has lead to a smaller world in which the companies deliver their products and render their services in a worldwide basis. To this end, our firm since 1972 provides to companies and individuals the necessary tax and legal advisory with local attention and global capabilities.

Our role is to provide the legal tax planning tools in order to avoid being taxed in more than one jurisdiction. With careful and timely planning we can help our clients to avoid their earnings or profits being subject to double taxation. In particular through:

  • Tax treaty interpretation.
  • Inbound and outbound tax planning.
  • Expatriate and impatriate taxation.
  • Investment holding structures.
