Tax Advisory and Tax Compliance Services

There are numerous tax aspects to consider when planning for or accessing your retirement savings. This is particularly important when savings and pensions schemes, or other significant assets, are located in more than one jurisdiction and subject to different rules and multiple, potentially competing, tax and inheritance laws.

The levels and bases of taxation, and reliefs from taxation, are subject to change. This could be detrimental to your longer-term retirement plans, reducing the ability to fund your pensions to the extent that you wish, so it is important to get advice.

Different investments will be taxed differently, so when and how you take your income, and in what order, can make a huge difference to your retirement. You need to ensure that you are taking advantage of the various allowances to which you are entitled and decide which investments and assets you draw from first, and which to hold for legacy planning.

Without seeking advice, it can be difficult to know whether a course of action is the most tax efficient way to secure your retirement or estate planning goals, or if it could potentially generate tax problems later. It is also important that the advice you receive is up to date and ongoing.

Combining local knowledge with an international perspective, Sovereign Tax Services provide tax advisory and tax compliance services to non-UK resident pension schemes and their members. Our team will assist in analysing risks and identifying options. We will then deliver the strategic advice that is needed to provide solutions.

We always recommend planning ahead. Tax advice taken in good time can save substantial cost in the long term as well as providing considerable peace of mind. It is only once individuals fully understand their tax position that they can assess their options and plan effectively to secure their retirement goals.
