Business tax

How we can help

Deloitte Ireland delivers a comprehensive, practical approach to tax planning that helps multinational businesses meet their worldwide tax and statutory responsibilities while identifying planning opportunities and providing specialised services to achieve cost efficiencies in line with the company’s risk profile. We believe that the most defensible tax strategies are aligned with the company’s operations and integrated with the overall business plan.

Compliance services
As businesses expand operations into new markets the complexity of managing tax risks and complying with reporting requirements multiplies. Our globally-managed tax compliance framework enables Deloitte’s tax professionals to help multinational organisations achieve their goal of accurate, cost-effective compliance that also provides global visibility to the right information for making informed strategic decisions.

Financial accounting for income taxes
Financial accounting and reporting for income taxes have become increasingly complex. Tax departments must keep up with the latest regulatory developments and guidance related to income tax accounting, disclosures and documentation, as well as seeking ways to address their tax provision process and technology needs more reliably and efficiently. Deloitte tax professionals understand the complexities and can provide practical insight, standardisation, and technical expertise to help clients navigate through the maze of statutory requirements.

Advisory and consulting services
One of the biggest challenges – and greatest areas of opportunity – for taxpayers is effectively managing local and foreign taxes in a way that aligns with overall business objectives and operations. Deloitte advises companies on a broad range of domestic, and foreign tax matters, including management of the global effective tax rate, business re-structuring and planning for the impact of new and proposed regulations. Our globally-managed team helps companies implement practical, innovative strategies to better manage taxes earnings and enhance cash flow so they can focus on growing their businesses.

Consulting – Post Merger Integration (PMI) services
All transactions—whether mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, equity investments, or divestitures—raise complex issues regarding potential tax risks and provide opportunities to implement practical strategies to improve tax efficiency and certainty. When those deals involve companies with global operations, wading through the additional range of considerations is even more daunting. Deloitte can assist in effectively navigating the myriad of tax, accounting, legal, regulatory, cultural, and labour issues that arise in a transaction and help you to fully realise the anticipated post integration synergies.

Revenue audit
Multinational organisations will continue to spend more and more time and resources managing tax audits in both their local and overseas markets. Tax authorities are often sharing information about companies, and are also focusing increasingly on implementation failure and motive rather than technical merit. Deloitte’s Revenue Audit Group includes former tax authority officials, alternative dispute resolution specialists, and in many countries, tax litigation specialists who can assist multinational businesses at all levels of the Revenue Audit Cycle.
