International Tax
Legal guidance on the tax consequences of cross-border business, investment and personal wealth.
Overview
What this involves
When income, assets or people cross borders, more than one country may claim the right to tax them. Treaties, reporting obligations and structuring choices can make a significant difference to the result, and mistakes can be costly.
We advise businesses and individuals on the legal side of international tax: structuring cross-border operations and investments, treaty questions, reporting obligations for foreign assets, and tax aspects of relocation. We work closely with your accountants and tax advisors in each country.
