International Taxation
International tax regulations play a fundamental role in the structuring of international enterprises and international business transactions. Individuals and enterprises need to understand their tax responsibilities in each transaction and the implications of changes to tax laws that may come about as a result of pending legislation and treaties. Optimally, decision makers should be advised of tax responsibilities under alternative business structures before the enterprise is established or the transaction terms finalized.
After the enterprise or transaction is structured, a proactive audit system should be implemented in order that the individuals and organizations maintain compliance with tax and customs regulations. Transfer pricing issues, for example, are among the dynamics that need to be closely monitored under a system of internal review. When an individual or organization is found to have fallen short of complete compliance, representation can be beneficial in mitigating potential penalties.
