Navigating the complexities of international tax regulations requires expert guidance and strategic planning. Our International Tax Advisory Services provide comprehensive support to businesses and individuals operating across borders. We offer tailored solutions to ensure compliance with varying tax laws, optimize tax efficiency, and mitigate risks.
In the International Tax arena, it’s often what you don’t know that can hurt you. Your business seems to be operating smoothly. Then it happens. The IRS is asking questions. They ask if you withheld taxes on payments to non-U.S. persons. How about the withholdings on your foreign partner’s share of income in your U.S. LLC?
Or maybe they request an explanation of how you determined the foreign tax credit you used to reduce U.S. taxes. And they also want to know why you didn’t recognize deemed dividend income on the loan made to you by your foreign corporation. Oh, and also something about Subpart F, GILTI, Forms 5471, 5472, 8621, 8865, 8858, section 482, and let’s not forget the FBAR.
Perhaps instead you (or your client) are involved in an expanding business that needs some concise guidance regarding the implications of expanding overseas (or even expanding into the U.S.). You may have a general idea as to business opportunities there, but not enough of a feel for how that will impact things here. The way you do it (and the choice of entity is only one part) will often have a major impact on your U.S tax obligations (including how you disclose them).
On a more positive note, let’s say that you’ve got a great offer to sell your business and part of it includes foreign operations and/or stock. Any international tax issues there? There sure are, and once the documents are signed it may be difficult or impossible to fix problems that might have been easy before the deal is done.
Develop strategies to optimize tax liabilities while adhering to applicable regulations.
We can provide referrals to experienced and expert professionals that can ensure that your related-party transactions are compliant with global standards and local requirements.
Stay ahead of ever-changing tax laws with our proactive compliance solutions.
Leverage tax treaties to reduce withholding taxes and avoid double taxation. U.S. taxpayers paying income to foreign persons (e.g., royalties to foreign IP owners) need to be especially careful on this front. The withholding rules can be complicated and failure to follow them can have brutal results, even with respect to the individuals who authorize the payments.
Manage your U.S. tax and reporting obligations while working abroad.
Navigate and resolve tax disputes with foreign tax authorities efficiently and effectively.

Contact me for an appointment, preferably along with your tax advisor. Why? Because I often work closely with other CPAs and attorneys and have found that doing so serves the client’s best interests (and often strengthens their own relationship with their advisor). I can often quickly identify key issues and suggest a preliminary game plan that is quick, practical, and cost-effective. That way, you’re not tied into any long-term and expensive commitments.
