Taxation

We consider providing competent tax law advice as an integral aspect of our corporate and general business practice. In structuring any particular transaction or drafting a contract we take into consideration relevant tax implications and do preliminary planning, to legally minimize likely tax exposure for our clients. We counsel on issues of taxation of foreign investments in Latvia in view of domestic tax legislation and relative international treaties, corporate and personal income taxation, application of VAT in domestic and cross border transactions, tax incentives and penalties, taxation of non-residents in Latvia and taxation of securities transactions. We represent clients in administrative and judicial proceedings involving disputes on tax matters and the application of tax penalties by the Latvian State Revenue Service, registration with local tax authorities and the handling of other formalities.
