Moving through the world of taxation...-...A challenge we gladly accept

We advise on almost all types of tax, from personal income tax to corporate income tax in combination with transfer pricing, advance levies such as dividend withholding and payroll taxes, and also indirect taxes such as VAT.

As most of our clients operate cross border, we also have international tax law embedded in our service offering, which includes the application of double tax treaties, European tax law and multilateral regulations.
