The TRM™ team consults in the USA to American companies doing business in South Africa and the rest of Africa, Hungary, Romania and the rest of Europe.
Our consultants commute frequently between South Africa and Europe to attend to tax advice for multi-national companies in the USA doing business in these countries.
TRM™ expertise lies in guiding outbound USA corporations, investing in South Africa, the rest of Africa, Romania, Hungary and the rest of Europe. Our team has operated in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Swaziland, Mozambique, Mauritius, Zimbabwe and Kenya. Some of our clients operate in other African countries. Our experience and skills commence at tax planning the most suitable investment strategy, followed by developing a robust tax strategy to prepare well in advance for any tax authority audits that will take place in these jurisdictions. For instance, SARS (South Africa), APEH (Hungary) and ANAF (Romania) all have large tax units that focus on large taxpayer corporations, which will include multi-nationals, investing outward from the USA. This Large Tax Unit procedure is also being followed by other Tax Authorities in Africa and Europe.
The team brings a combination of tax trial experience and tax/accounting technical experience to any potential problem, with the additional knowledge of working with lawyers or advocates that are briefed to appear in certain tax court dispute. However, the track record of this unit is such that more than 90% of all cases do not find their way to the tax courts, but are usually settled in favor of the corporation.
