Tax and finance law for foreign corporations and nationals in Greece
Many international governments are increasingly investigating foreign entities for tax evasion. For example, the IRS in the United States of America requires all Americans citizens with foreign income or assets, whatever they may be, exceeding the amount of $10,000USD to inform the IRS of such assets and income to the IRS, making sure what you have declared corresponds with their investigations.
The same applies to other foreign democracies including other European countries, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and Israel. Advances in modern technology make this process much easier for governments to monitor and trace the financial activities of its citizens and residents internationally. Our tax and financial lawyer and attorney partners can assist you in making sure your assets, including international business, profit, and properties are all compliant with local and international taxation laws, displaying your good financial conduct.
