INDIRECT TAXES

Any business buying, selling, investing or employing staff in one or more countries is confronted with indirect taxes. Globally, governments are increasingly imposing indirect taxes: sales taxes, general services tax, business tax, VAT, custom duties, energy taxes, environmental taxes, excises, etc. New regulatory challenges arise in parallel, such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and similar rules in other jurisdictions. Unless indirect taxes are properly managed, profitability will decrease while working capital requirements (cash flow) and risks will increase. With regards to these issues, we can provide the following services:

Information on rules, rates, and jurisprudence

Indirect tax strategies that manage the impact of these taxes on the company’s financials, risk portfolio and organization.

Setting up, automating and digitizing indirect tax compliance processes.

Support with indirect tax inspections and litigation.

Monitoring of policy developments.

TRANSFER PRICING

Transfer pricing refers to inter-company pricing arrangements, with regards to transactions between related business entities. These can include transfers of intellectual property, tangible goods, services, and loans or other financial transactions. The use of transfer pricing tax strategies has recently attracted a high level of international attention, due to the rapid rise of multinational trade, and the opening of several significant developing economies. As a result, transfer pricing had an increased impact on corporate income taxation. As multinational corporations evolve into true global enterprises, compliance with the differing requirements of multiple overlapping tax jurisdictions has become a complicated and potentially expensive task to perform. In response to these factors, tax authorities around the world have become more aggressive in the transfer pricing arena, introducing stricter penalties, new documentation requirements, increased information exchange, improved audit staff training and increased audit and inspection activity and specialization. This intense scrutiny implies significant risks for the unprepared companies, particularly in a complex field such as transfer pricing where each transaction must be analyzed under its own unique facts and circumstances. We aid clients in taking care of their transfer pricing by offering the following services:

Transfer Pricing Assessment.

Transfer Pricing Report.

Filing of 3CEB (Transfer Pricing Audit).
