Tax Consultant: One-Off Advice and Ongoing Support
An answer before the deal, not an explanation of the consequences after it
Go to the Tax Consulting serviceChecked against the official source:
Most additional tax assessments arise not from intent but from transactions whose tax consequences nobody worked out in advance. That is exactly when a consultant is needed — before the contract is signed and the money has moved.
We work in two formats: a one-off review of a specific situation and ongoing support with involvement in business decisions.
Who may give tax advice
- an audit firm advises on taxes and prepares tax returns if it has a tax consultant on staff or under contract (Article 33 of Law ZRU-677 "On Auditing Activity");
- a tax consultants' organisation may file reports on a client's behalf through the client's personal account (Article 82 of the Tax Code);
- written advice relies on specific articles of the Tax Code — so it can be verified.
What clients ask about
- Tax consequences of a specific transaction or a new line of business
- Dealing with foreign counterparties and applying double tax treaties
- Transactions between related parties — the criterion of a share above 20% is set by Articles 37–38 of the Tax Code
- Controlled transactions and transfer pricing (Articles 180–182 of the Tax Code)
- Applying tax incentives and special tax regimes
- Choosing a structure when setting up a new legal entity
One-off advice or ongoing support
One-off advice settles a specific question: we analyse the transaction and give a written answer with references to the law. It suits a one-time situation.
Ongoing support makes sense when there are many such questions: the consultant knows the business context and is brought in before a decision, not after. It also removes a typical problem — nobody asked because nobody realised the question was a tax one.
How tax advice differs from an accountant's advice
An accountant records a transaction that has already happened according to accounting rules. A tax consultant assesses what its consequences will be and proposes lawful options before it takes place. These are different tasks, and a good accountant does not replace a consultant, nor vice versa.
Boundaries: what we do not do
We do not offer schemes that reduce taxes through fictitious transactions or misstated financial statements. Such solutions shift the risk to the company and come to light at the first inspection. We work only with lawful tools — incentives, regimes and a correct transaction structure.

Describe your situation — we will tell you whether there is a risk and propose lawful options before the deal is done.
Go to the Tax Consulting serviceFrequently asked questions
Do you provide a written opinion?
Yes. On significant questions the answer is given in writing with references to the Tax Code — it serves both as a working document and as support for your position in a dispute.
Can I get advice on a transaction that has already taken place?
Yes, and this is a common case. The task then is to assess the risk that has arisen and determine what can still be corrected before an inspection.
Do you work with foreign companies?
Yes, including taxation of representative offices, payments abroad and application of double tax treaties.
Can a tax consultant file returns for the company?
Yes, a tax consultants' organisation may submit reports on the taxpayer's behalf through the personal account (Article 82 of the Tax Code).
