"Schoenherr delivers 'the highest standard of work', and is able to deal with 'complicated, specialised questions'."
Tax impacts most transactions and structures. Tax advice is therefore crucial. In a constantly changing business environment, clients face complex tax rules. Schoenherr's tax team supports you not only in detecting tax risks but in providing you with simple, clear and practical tax solutions.
We join forces with other Schoenherr practice groups in major transactions, and thereby focus on what we are really good at: tax structuring, transactional tax advice, international tax law advice and general tax expertise. We serve businesses, investors as well as private clients.
Our tax practice has substantial experience in tax structuring. Our track record emphasises the Schoenherr tax team's skill in tax planning when structuring domestic and cross-border businesses, acquisitions and reorganisations, such as mergers and spin-offs. We also provide tax restructuring advice to financially distressed entities.
In addition, we advise clients on tax aspects in transactional matters, both in domestic and cross-border transactions. Either based on our tax structuring or on a stand-alone basis, our tax team is involved from the outset throughout all stages of the transaction. This guarantees optimal results for you. We guide clients in business, investment, real estate and financial transactions, ensuring their success.
Our focus on tax structuring and transactional tax advice is perfectly rounded off by our experience in international tax law matters. We advise on issues regarding exit taxation, permanent establishments of foreign companies and cross-border employment matters, as well as international tax risks and compliance issues.
We support our clients in communicating and dealing with tax authorities. This includes the representation of our clients in tax audits as well as in tax proceedings in front of the Austrian Tax Court and the Supreme Courts. In addition, we advise our clients both preventively in the assessment of existing criminal tax risks as well as in the preparation of (voluntary) self-disclosures and in the context of ongoing criminal tax proceedings in front of the courts.
Our clients, including lawyers, accountants and tax advisors, face complex tax questions. We therefore support them with risk analyses and expert opinions in tax matters. We provide advice in all tax areas, such as corporate income tax, VAT, transfer pricing, stamp duty, transfer taxes, personal income taxes and local taxes. We also offer assistance in tax audits and tax litigation and provide training sessions to keep our clients updated about tax legislation and trends.
Romania: Deadlock in sale of Romanian farmland outside buildable areas finally cleared
A two-and-a-half-year deadlock impeding the sale of Romanian farmland located outside buildable areas and acquired less than eight years ago seems to have been finally cleared. On 2 February 2023 a much-awaited normative act came into effect, filling a series of legislative gaps and allowing public notaries to authenticate sale agreements for certain types of farmland located outside buildable areas.
