International Tax Law
Companies that operate internationally face complex tax challenges that can hinder their global expansion.
Without specialized advice, cross-border tax issues can lead to significant financial and legal problems that threaten the growth and success of your business.
Our firm offers specialized advice in international tax law to clarify tax issues and arrangements with an international dimension. With clients from countries such as the United States, Canada and Ireland – and around the world – we navigate the complexities of cross-border tax issues to ensure optimal tax structuring and compliance.
Global Mobility
The international assignment of employees brings with it complex tax and social security challenges that can be burdensome for both companies and employees.
Without sound advice, the tax implications of sending employees abroad or taking on foreign employees in Germany can lead to unexpected costs and legal problems.
Our expertise in global mobility includes advising on the tax implications of both posting employees abroad and taking on foreign employees in Germany. We provide advice before, during and after the assignment in order to master all tax and social security challenges.
Payroll accounting
Foreign employers without a presence in Germany face the challenge of preparing payrolls for their domestic employees correctly and in compliance with the law.
Without a sound knowledge of German social security and tax law requirements, errors in payroll accounting can lead to considerable legal and financial consequences.
We prepare payrolls for domestic employees of foreign employers without a presence in Germany. This includes initial registration as an employer, the preparation of ongoing payrolls and preparation for any tax audits. We always ensure compliance with German social security and tax law requirements.
Company formation and permanent establishments
The establishment and tax registration of subsidiaries and permanent establishments in a new country can be complex and time-consuming.
Without sound advice, foreign companies can easily fall into legal and tax pitfalls that affect business operations and growth.
We support foreign companies with the establishment and tax registration of subsidiaries and permanent establishments in Germany. Our advice covers all aspects from the choice of legal form to ongoing tax support, including the specific challenges of business management in Germany.
Accounting and compliance
Ongoing financial accounting and compliance with tax regulations can be time-consuming and complex for companies.
Without accurate accounting and compliance, companies can easily run into financial and legal difficulties that affect their business operations.
Our firm prepares ongoing financial accounting as well as annual financial statements and business tax returns. We ensure compliance with all relevant German and international tax regulations in order to guarantee accurate reporting and optimal tax planning.
Tax audits and wage tax audits
Tax audits and wage tax audits can be stressful and time-consuming for companies, especially if they are confronted with unjustified claims.
Without professional support, such audits can lead to unexpected additional payments and legal problems that affect business operations.
We offer comprehensive support during tax audits and wage tax audits, represent clients before the tax authorities and ensure that unjustified claims are defended, if necessary also before a tax court or the Federal Fiscal Court. Foreign companies in particular benefit from our expertise in German tax law and our experience with international business activities.
