Tax advisory & compliance
Top-level strategy to bottom line
We offer tax advisory and compliance services through our taxation service line. These services include working with clients to understand their business, analyze their financial and tax positions, and derive tax structures and solutions that optimally manage their tax exposure and liabilities.
Our tax clients include large corporate entities, SMEs, partnerships, concession interests, public corporations and individuals (local and expatriate). We seek to provide our clients with efficient ways of managing their tax compliance matters and responsibilities, so as to meet compliance obligations in various areas, including:
- Corporate taxes
- Advance taxes
- Withholding taxes
- Payroll and personal income taxes
- Goods and services tax
- Transfer pricing
- Taxes on dividends, royalties and other forms of income attributable to resident and non-resident persons.
We represent clients before regulatory authorities and assist in responding to information requests from, and audits by, tax authorities. This includes examinations by the Liberia Revenue Authority (LRA) and any subsequent (tax) appeals processes. Our work in this respect involves explaining the client’s position(s) to Tax Auditors and, when necessary, preparing protests and arguments for the administrative appeals process. We also represent clients by requesting LRA rulings regarding the tax consequences of proposed transactions.
