Permanent Establishment (PE) Assessments

Avoid accidental tax exposure.
 If your overseas operations trigger a “Permanent Establishment” in the UK (or vice versa), you may owe corporation tax unexpectedly. We assess your global footprint, advise on risk, and structure operations to avoid costly surprises.

Withholding Tax & Double Tax Treaty Planning

Stop unnecessary tax leakage.
Cross-border payments, like interest, dividends, or royalties, can attract withholding taxes. We leverage double tax treaties to minimise or eliminate these taxes, ensuring your group or investment structure runs tax-efficiently.

ATED Filings for Non-Resident Property Companies

Stay compliant. Avoid HMRC penalties.
If your non-UK company owns UK residential property over £500,000, ATED (Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings) applies. We manage ATED filings, advise on reliefs (like property rental or commercial use), and ensure full HMRC compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions? Our FAQ section covers the answers to the most common queries about our services, from International & Cross-Border Tax Planning

How can my UK business expand overseas without facing double taxation?

When trading or setting up entities abroad, profits may be taxed both in the UK and the foreign jurisdiction. Careful structuring, use of Double Tax Treaties, and claiming foreign tax credits are critical to avoid paying tax twice.

What are the UK tax implications of relocating my business or operations abroad?

Exiting the UK can trigger exit charges, permanent establishment issues, and capital gains. Planning ahead helps manage these risks and ensures ongoing compliance in both the UK and the destination country.

Do transfer pricing rules apply to SMEs trading internationally?

Yes. Any cross-border transactions with related parties must be priced at arm’s length. Even SMEs need to maintain documentation to justify pricing or risk HMRC adjustments and penalties.

How are expatriates and internationally mobile employees taxed?

UK residency rules, domicile status, and the remittance basis all affect tax exposure. Both employers and employees must consider PAYE, social security agreements, and potential double tax reliefs.
