VAT and indirect taxation
Our expertise for your strategic operations
VAT and indirect taxation on goods and services are now more than ever a major issue for companies. Due to the digitalisation of the economy, increasing declaration obligations and the public authorities' stronger desire to prevent fraud, regulations are changing rapidly, which requires constant attention and adaptation.
In this context, the major reform of electronic invoicing and e-reporting by 2026, the ViDA directive that will modernise VAT rules, and the creation and adaptation of sectoral indirect taxation are dramatically changing practices. This dynamic is a source of risks and constraints, but is also a tangible opportunity to optimise companies' cash resources and supply chains.
Expertise organised around the different issues faced by our clients
Our team is specialised in VAT, payroll tax, taxes on goods and services, and capital transfer tax on real estate transactions. We advise our clients on all the key subjects: determining and adhering to rules on VAT and payroll tax, declarative and formal obligations, invoicing rules, managing VAT-related taxes and handling cross-border issues.
We operate in France and abroad, at every stage of your operations, with a pragmatic approach focussed on operational performance and legal security.
We guide our clients in their real estate transactions (including capital transfer tax), their share capital transactions (structuring and restructuring), their banking, financial and insurance transactions, and their cross-border transactions – both intra-community and outside the EU.
We also master e-commerce platform issues as well as transactions carried out by non-profit public administrative law entities.
