International Tax Planning

All cross border transactions have a tax implication

While these can be relatively straightforward requiring little specialist consideration, once presence is established in a foreign jurisdiction matters become much more complex, often resulting in unforeseen tax liabilities or missed opportunities for mitigation.

In countries subject to exchange control restrictions and very high personal and corporate tax rates, clients may wish to consider trading outside their host country. Maximum advantage should be taken of the different tax rules between the client's host country and other relevant jurisdictions to ensure that all due benefits are exploited.

Taxation responds as well to good planning and control as any other business cost. We regularly provide international taxation advice to private individuals, international entrepreneurs, investors, businesses, corporations and trustees. We believe that all clients are different and need individual tax strategies.

We are skilled in advising across the spectrum of situations arising regularly or as one-off transactions. And our membership of the Russell Bedford International network provides us with easy access to local tax advice and support in jurisdictions around the world.

Our international tax planning services cover the following areas:

• inward and outward investment
• repatriation of profits
• double tax relief planning
• international company structuring
• structuring of trading arrangements
• formation and administration of trusts
• remuneration planning for international executives
• tax structuring for emigration

We are also able to provide international tax solutions where financial arrangements are required to be made in compliance with Sharia law.
