Tax

This is more relevant to taxation than any other field. A tax administration dispute can have a huge impact on your business activity so you must keep your finger on the pulse in tax cases.

International data exchange

What is international information exchange?

In an increasingly globalized world, tax transparency is becoming ever more important. International regulations require financial institutions and businesses to provide extensive information to tax authorities, leading to growing cross-border information exchange. While these rules aim to combat tax evasion, they can also create complex obligations and risks for companies and individuals.

Our approach:

We provide specialized advice and guidance on international tax regulations and information exchange. Whether it involves meeting reporting obligations, protecting your privacy and other interests, or minimizing risks, our experts are ready to assist you.

Our expertise in this field:

Tuerlinckx offers specialized advice regarding international reporting obligations, such as CRS, FATCA, and EU directives DAC7 and DAC8. We also provide legal assistance in relation to the exchange of tax information, as well as disputes arising from such exchanges, including tax audits and joint audits.

In practice? Illustrative cases:

CASE

Belgian residents with foreign accounts were confronted with information requests from the tax authorities, based on data obtained through international information exchange. The authorities suspected them of tax evasion if foreign income was not reported.

Our intervention led to a correct taxation of the taxable foreign income, with a reasonable additional tax assessment applied.
