It’s a global economy. Partnerships with suppliers are extending overseas along with customer bases, and more initiatives are being outsourced internationally. Katz, Sapper & Miller understands navigating the waters of rapidly changing international tax law can be complex. We have the experience you need to not only find your way, but to achieve even greater success.

Our firm is uniquely positioned to provide international tax planning services to closely held multi-national businesses. In fact, the tax structure that may be best suited for these types of operations is generally very different from the structure utilized by larger operations. Our professionals know the planning opportunities that are presented by these differences, including:

• Efficient Utilization of Foreign Tax Credits
• Maximizing Benefits from International Tax Treaties
• Minimizing Withholding Obligations
• Identification of Deferral Opportunities
• Cross Border Mergers and Acquisitions
• IC-DISC Planning for U.S. Exporters

• Earnings and Profits Determinations
• Repatriation Planning
• Deemed Paid Foreign Tax Credit Calculations

Our comprehensive international compliance services for businesses and individuals with international activities are in satisfaction of all U.S. filing obligations. International operations can generate a variety of different U.S. filing obligations, including (but certainly not limited to):

• Form TD F 90-22.1, Foreign Bank Account Reporting
