Moving to the U.S. or Creating a Business in the U.S.

Moving to the US? We are prepared to assist you by:

  • Explanation of the U.S. tax law to the ingoing foreigner.
  • What tax planning can be done prior to your taking up residence in the US?
  • When do you become a tax resident?
  • Do you have continuing tax filing obligations in the country you are leaving, and if so, what are they?
  • How do you deal with the issues of potential double taxation?
  • Visa questions often arise. Although we are unable to help you gain a green card, we can help you apply for certain types of visas, such as the H-1B and the E-1/E-2.
  • If you are planning to set up a business in the U.S., what are the available structures, and the tax implications of each?

We can help you gain an understanding of the U.S. tax system, as it will affect your personal, investment and business life in the U.S. The U.S. tax system is one of the most complex if not the most complex in the world. Tax planning is useful both before you make the move and after the move is made. We will analyze your situation and show you where planning can be of great fiscal value to you. If you are planning to create a business in the U.S., we can help you conceptualize the tax aspects of your business plan, to choose an appropriate structure, and to create and implement the necessary contractual aspects of its creation. We can create your U.S. entity. Our network of U.S. legal and accounting contacts will be of invaluable service in the regard.
