In response to the COVID-19 crisis: advisory services

>> Tax & Social Security payments deferral

Apply to tax authorities for tax deferral and repayment schedule, even if your business is not in the COVID-19 directly affected taxpayers.

>> Tax burden relief, tax incentives

Bolster liquidity with our assistance in the tax burden relief and tax incentives related assistance. This offering is also possible on a “success fee” basis, meaning that it will cost to you only if it will be successful and real tax savings will result. This offering is safe, as we systematically ask for tax authorities’ confirmation in writing and prepare a “defense file”. 

>> Transfer pricing advisory and compliance 

Disregarding COVID-19, on 15 June 2020 all companies with >3m EUR revenue and >90k EUR transactions with associated parties must have transfer pricing documentation for such transactions.
