Corporate tax

Tax strategy aligned with your ambitious

In an increasingly complex tax environment, mastering the rules is key to business success. Our team provides pragmatic, forward-looking advice to help clients navigate Monaco corporate tax issues, both locally and internationally.

While the Monaco VAT regime is broadly aligned with the French regime, it includes specific features which require careful consideration.  Applying corporate income tax (ISB) rules and registration duties, based on technical legislation shaped and complemented by practice, requires a strong, practical understanding of the Monaco market. 

We have a solid track record in tax analysis and audit, particularly in the context of transactions and corporate reorganisations. Where required, we bring together multidisciplinary teams, including specialists in corporate, employment and real estate law, to deliver integrated and effective solutions.

We also assist clients across all stages of tax audits and investigations, including matters relating to the application of the above regimes and the automatic exchange of information.

Our areas of expertise include:

  • Corporate income tax
  • Value Added Tax (VAT)
  • Registration duties
  • International taxation agreements
  • Audits
  • Tax implications of group restructuring
  • Tax inspections and litigation
  • Automatic exchange of information
