Tax Consulting
The fiscal climate is becoming more severe. Relief currently afforded in connection with various legal reforms is incapable of balancing out the increased burden resulting from a harsher approach on the part of the tax authorities. For instance, write-offs and reserves that were regarded as deductible for years are no longer being accepted. Due to these changes in assessment practice, court rulings and changes to the law, it is often difficult to spot and uncover taxation risks at an early stage, or to exploit opportunities for minimising costs. As qualified experts, we are familiar with the relevant provisions and we will help you to reach the right decisions.
Direct tax – legal entities
As a client of SUDAN PARTNER AG, you gain taxation advantages from our interlinked auditing and tax consultancy services. Long-term minimisation of taxes is our main aim here. As specialists in corporate taxation, we compile tax statements as part of our audit in accordance with clients‘assignments. If necessary, we discuss this with the tax administration, supported by our transparent reporting. This enables us to encourage non-bureaucratic cooperation with the tax authorities. We provide support for mergers, spin-offs, reorganisations, company formations and conversions, and sales/purchases of companies. We also plan and optimise tax in respect of succession arrangements, and we offer our clients financial management advice for all restructuring and reorganisation processes. We calculate the taxable value of unlisted companies. Other services include drawing up your tax declaration in a formally correct manner, checking the assessments, monitoring deadlines, fiscal deputisation, protests and appeals.
Direct tax – natural persons
We handle tax declarations for our clients throughout Switzerland with computer support; we monitor deadlines and assessments, arrange payments, negotiate with the authorities and deal with protests. We plan, optimise and calculate your taxes and show you the main changes to your assets from the fiscal viewpoint.
Value added tax
The detailed Value Added Tax Law and the countless detailed regulations make it very difficult to keep an overview. Even minor formal errors trigger complaints in VAT audits, not infrequently leading to unpleasant surprises. We help you to negotiate these obstacles and we can assist you with your set-up, declarations and staff training. As a general rule, the consulting costs that prevent such risks are merely a fraction of the potential tax demands that may be lodged subsequently.
International tax know-how
Thanks to our membership of TIAG (see International Network), we are also able to offer you cross-border advice on tax matters.
