Taxes and the tax law issues associated with them affect all areas of the economy - whether large international corporations, family businesses or private individuals, they all have to deal with this in a variety of ways.
KWR offers its clients a special advantage because our experts are not only trained lawyers, but also licensed as tax advisors. The expertise of the KWR Tax Law Team is very much in demand, so our experts also lecture and publish on current topics of tax law on a regular basis.

The KWR Team offers you support on all issues of national and international tax law - with a particular focus on challenging single issues and assistance in complex transactions.
We work closely with our colleagues from other teams in order to be able to offer you a full range of services and to work with you on the development of tailor-made solutions to your problems or answers to any questions as may arise.

We work for both Austrian and international clients and our advisory services range from the structuring of business divisions to all issues concerning tax law and levies, including corporate tax, VAT, real estate transfer tax, reorganization tax and legislation on official fees. You have come to the right place if you need advice on the issuing of financial instruments, the tax optimization of transactions or complex restructurings. You can count on the experience and know-how of our experts, they will be sure to provide you with the best advice!

Together with our colleagues from the Corporate Law Team, we assist our clients in all tax-related issues arising in mergers, acquisitions/sales of companies and joint ventures as well as takeovers. Of course, this also applies to large-scale real estate transactions involving domestic and foreign investors.
Our focus is on tax-efficient structures (in mergers), the design of acquisition or divestiture structures, acquisition financing and the development of employee participation models. You can also rely on our expertise in the reorganization of distressed companies, as we also advise you on all tax issues relating to debt restructuring and debt relief for the company concerned.

We advise both high net worth individuals and groups of companies on cross-border tax planning, highlighting the possibilities offered by Austrian tax law, such as the advantages of an Austrian private foundation, and will work with you on the development of structures to reduce your tax burden.

The acquisition or restructuring of companies may entail far-reaching tax consequences and requires competent legal advice. We advise you throughout the entire process and assist you in avoiding tax burdens and tax risks. This can effectively be achieved by choosing a tax-neutral acquisition structure, ensuring the tax deductibility of acquisition-related expenses, goodwill amortization, and avoiding or optimizing real estate transfer taxes and legal transaction fees.

Every company, every family is unique and special. When it comes to safeguarding the work of one’s lifetime, a well-planned transfer to successors in due course is essential. KWR has extensive experience in succession planning (for more information, click here) and we can offer our clients top-notch advice.
