International
Tax for
Overseas Transactions
For small to mid-size companies, adding the complexity of sales across borders or an
international presence opens up a new landscape of tax rules and regulations. Attention to
and reporting of international business items must be treated with the highest priority to
keep your company in good standing. In addition to preparing all necessary tax returns and/or
forms, we can add value to your business with:
• Advice regarding overseas investment and tax compliance – You can use your business entity
structure to achieve tax efficiencies across borders. We’ll help you design the best entity
(corporate or individual) to invest in a foreign country by incorporating the foreign country’s
tax codes with the U.S. tax regulations.
• Help with transfer pricing rules – For financial reporting, transfer pricing is under intense
scrutiny by the IRS. It is an area of increasing audit attention and therefore a primary concern
for clients. In a volatile economy, transfer pricing must be continually monitored for accuracy
and integrity. Although seemingly onerous, consistent documentation is an effective tool for
managing financial statement risk.
• Guidance concerning foreign sales – Whether you do a little or a lot of business internationally,
your company’s financial security can depend on paying the right amount of tax, avoiding risk and
increasing supply-chain efficiency. By making informed choices associated with cross-border transactions
and/or shipping, you can avoid many complications that cut into your profitability.
Other tax issues may include foreign tax credits, export incentives and tax management, financing your
foreign investments, tax controversy assistance and income tax implications for ex-patriots and/or foreign nationals.
