Payroll

Calculation, withholding, pay statements and the related filings.

Our services

Brazil

Full accounting for companies

Books, tax determination, reporting and statutory compliance.

Income tax, individuals and companies

Prepared with the U.S. return in view, so the two do not contradict each other.

Regularisation and compliance

Correcting past filings and bringing obligations current.

Our services

Where the two sides meet

Cross-border compliance

The filings and reports each country requires when the other is in the picture, and the order in which they have to happen.

Management reconciliation, Brazil and the United States

Comparative reporting across the accounting bases used in each country, to support decisions across jurisdictions. This is management and bookkeeping work; it does not produce audited statements or an assurance opinion.

Cross-border structuring

How an entity, a property or a holding is read on each side, and what each arrangement implies in the other country.

Planning around a move

For people relocating in either direction, the sequence of steps and filings that a move sets off in both systems.

Estate and succession across two systems

How assets in one country are treated by the other when they pass, and what that means for the people who inherit them.
