International tax law

Respond to increasing globalisation.

The increasing complexity of tax law, the trend towards globalisation and a Europe “without borders” increase the need for competent advice in international tax issues.

In particular in a region close to the border like Aachen with Belgium and the Netherlands in its close vicinity, you as an entrepreneur, but also as a private individual, will be faced with issues regarding international tax law.

Due to the globalisation of the markets, investments of domestic enterprises abroad are of increasing importance, and conversely, foreign enterprises invest in Germany. Often the potential created by locations in different countries remains untapped.
A well thought-out tax strategy with a view across the borders is therefore inevitable. We help you to develop and implement such a strategy in order to reduce your tax rate!

In our times, working and living independent of national borders is not an exception any longer, but rather a rule. Whenever a private individual moves his/her place of residence abroad or from abroad to Germany, it is required to examine the income and inheritance tax-related aspects. Questions regarding social insurance and old-age pension are usually also important when moving one’s place of residence. We assist you with finding the optimal arrangement for your change of residence.

Due to the special location in the region where the three countries Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands meet, we regularly have to deal with the complexity of cross-border taxation.

The close cooperation with our foreign partner offices ensures direct and efficient transfer of know-how.
