Setting Up Operations in Canada? We Can Help!
Starting a business in a foreign jurisdiction can be a complicated and frustrating process. Foreign persons or companies that are planning to carry on business - or who are currently conducting business - in Canada require advice on how to operate in the Canadian marketplace. They must be consistently apprised of changes in laws that may affect their businesses or reporting obligations.
SBLR LLP Chartered Accountants has the experience and expertise to provide effective and practical advice in the following areas:
- Structuring Canadian operations to take advantage of federal and provincial Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) tax credits for the development of new products or processes. Canada has one of the most lucrative tax credit programs in the world. If structured correctly, companies may be eligible to receive tax credits of up to 50% of their qualified expenditures.
- Minimizing Canadian federal and provincial corporate income and capital taxes on Canadian business operations.
- Structuring Canadian investments to minimize withholding taxes on the repatriation of profits or payments of interest.
- Structuring Canadian business operations to achieve optimum benefits from any applicable income tax treaties.
- Ensuring that clients fully satisfy Canadian income and capital tax reporting and compliance requirements.
- Ensuring that clients fully satisfy Canadian Goods and Services Tax, Quebec Sales Tax, and Harmonized Sales Tax reporting and compliance requirements.
- Ensuring that payroll and other compensation-related reporting requirements are complied with.
As an active member of Enterprise Network Worldwide, a leading alliance of independent accounting firms around the world, SBLR has successfully assisted a number of international companies who require Canadian tax and accounting expertise.
