Corporate taxation encompasses all the tax laws applicable to businesses. There are numerous fiscal provisions that companies must adhere to in order to comply with tax legislation. Among the taxes and fees that businesses are required to pay, we find corporate income tax (CIT), VAT, local business tax (CET), and more. Corporate taxation applies to both professionals and individuals using companies to manage their wealth.

Why call on a business tax lawyer?

The complexity of corporate taxation, especially regarding VAT, makes it essential today to seek the assistance of a business tax lawyer to ensure the relevance of tax choices while securing and optimizing taxation for the company’s operations. Indeed, there is a wide variety of tax regimes for businesses (including common tax regimes, penalizing tax regimes, and favorable tax regimes) that companies often are not even aware of. The role of the business tax lawyer, particularly an expert in VAT, is crucial so that the company makes the best tax choices as part of its VAT optimization strategy while minimizing the risk of tax audits.

The areas of intervention of the tax lawyer in corporate taxation

Our business tax lawyers are qualified to advise you on all tax aspects of your company.

We handle both routine corporate taxation and taxation related to exceptional business transactions.

Taxation of business creation

The choice of taxation during the creation of the company is crucial as it will have a direct impact on the net profit of the company and, therefore, on the profitability of the business. Additionally, tax law provides for various possible tax regimes when starting a business, depending on the chosen legal structure and the type of activity. That’s why it’s important to always seek advice from a business tax lawyer right from the start of your business to make the best tax choices.

Tax structuring of companies and groups of companies

The tax structure of the company often needs to evolve during the life of the business. Indeed, factors such as the size of the company, turnover, number of associates, international expansion, or the development of new activities are parameters to consider in the tax structuring of businesses and groups of companies. Moreover, the constantly evolving VAT regimes require the intervention of VAT experts to adapt to the increasing complexity of corporate taxation, especially to the special tax regimes dedicated to groups of companies (tax consolidation, tax regime for parent companies, VAT group, etc.).

Tax declaration and management advice

Tax declaration periods are often delicate stages for companies, sometimes facing complex tax issues with significant financial stakes. Our business tax lawyers, experts in VAT, intervene to optimize and secure the company’s operations in the context of establishing their VAT declarations.

The lawyers in the Cabinet also provide services in VAT audit and Tax compliance to ensure the compliance of the tax obligations of businesses.

Taxation of business restructuring

Corporate restructurings often involve highly complex tax issues, making it essential to have the intervention of a tax lawyer specializing in corporate taxation to ensure the tax optimization of operations and the implementation of restructurings in a secure tax framework. Our team of tax lawyers advises you on the tax aspects of corporate restructurings, validating aspects related to VAT regimes.

Taxation of business transfer

The transfer of the business is an important step for both the transferor and the transferee. The transfer operation, whether free of charge or for consideration, always involves tax questions, especially regarding the regularity of VAT declarations.

The VAT tax lawyers at the Cabinet conduct compliance audits prior to the business transfer to ensure the regularity of declarations and applicable VAT regimes, thus preventing the risks of tax audits.
