International TaxYou have just won a contract in another country. Before the work starts, it is worth knowing whether it creates a taxable presence there.
Selling or delivering across borders can bring local tax long before you set up an office.
ImageOverseas Contracts, to be added
People negotiating, signing or delivering work in another country can create local tax obligations for the business. That can mean corporate tax, withholding tax, VAT and additional compliance costs. The tax should be understood before the contract is priced and structured, so the expected margin still stacks up.
Where more than one group company is involved in delivering the work, the profit needs to be allocated between them on the right basis.
