Tax planning and compliance support tailored to your circumstances
We provide legal support for tax and business planning and coordinate tax compliance matters for companies, business owners and private clients. Our work brings together corporate documentation, the proposed business structure and input from independent tax advisers and accountants.
Tax planning requires an assessment of the client's activities, residence, ownership structure and the rules applicable at the time. Any relief or exemption depends on satisfying the relevant conditions; no particular tax saving or outcome can be guaranteed.
We also coordinate IP Box-related matters. The Cyprus regime requires an assessment of qualifying assets and income under the nexus approach. Our role includes legal documentation for IP ownership, acquisition and licensing, alongside the tax assessment and calculations carried out by the relevant specialists.
Depending on the agreed engagement, support may include:
Corporate and personal tax planning coordination;- Legal support for business restructuring and proposed reorganisations;
- Coordination of tax registrations and relevant compliance documentation;
- Coordination of tax return preparation and submission with independent accountants or tax advisers;
- Corporate tax, personal tax and VAT enquiries;
- VAT and VIES compliance coordination where applicable;
- Liaison with tax authorities within the scope of the client's authorisation;
- IP Box and transfer pricing documentation coordination with relevant specialists.
We agree the scope of legal work and the responsibilities of any independent advisers at the outset. Cross-border matters are coordinated with advisers in the relevant jurisdictions.
