FAQ

Common questions about tax advisory

Clear answers to the questions we hear most from business owners.

Corporate tax exposure, VAT treatment, withholding tax, free zone qualifying income, related-party transactions and cross-border structuring — plus the practical documentation each position needs.

Yes. Restructuring is far easier to plan than to unwind. Reviewing the tax implications before the change lets you compare options while all of them are still open to you.

We advise both, including groups that hold entities in each. Free zone questions usually centre on qualifying income and substance, and we set out clearly which conditions your position depends on.

Yes. Many clients keep us on hand for the questions that come up between filings — a new contract, a new market, a rule change — so advice arrives while the decision is still being made.
