Businesses deal with national and international tax issues on a daily basis, against an increasingly complex legal background. Tax authorities are imposing greater compliance burdens and governments are seeking new sources of tax revenue.


What sets us apart is the way we deliver our tax advice to you: we offer deep local expertise, combined with industry specialisation, by international, like-minded experts who know each other well and work together regularly.


CMS advises you on all business tax issues:


  • Mergers & acquisitions
  • Transfer pricing
  • VAT
  • Dispute resolution
  • International taxation
  • Private clients


We advise on contentious as well as non-contentious matters, including disputes with tax authorities through administrative procedures and before tax tribunals.


  • CMS has a strong track record of advising organisations on the tax structuring of important projects, using a solution-oriented approach.
