Taxes & Social Security

“Our long-standing expertise also includes providing tax and social security advice for internationally active employees in domestic and international contexts.”

Employees and their know-how are often the most valuable resources for companies. Workforce is increasingly being posted abroad as “international local hires” or expatriates for a certain amount of time to further develop themselves or the company in the host country, to provide missing specialist know-how or to acquire such knowledge.
These expats, as they are called, are subject to special tax and social security regulations. Furthermore, there are other aspects that require consideration, such as correct registration and administration in the host country as well as other legal issues.

Our specialists deal with such issues regularly and assist you with reducing the complexity of the situation and the accompanying costs. With the CONVINUS Global Network (CGN), we possess a wide international network as well as experience with consulting for overseas postings, individual tax returns, integration at the new location as well as continuous support.

Contact us with any questions you may have. We will work with you to find the best solution.
