Achieving maximum tax efficiency for international and Afghan businesses requires both smart strategy and expert guidance. Moore Afghanistan offers comprehensive tax advisory services that help organizations and individuals minimize their tax liabilities while maintaining full regulatory compliance.

Strategic Tax Planning: Key Tips

  1. Leverage Tax Exemptions & Local Incentives: International businesses operating under bilateral agreements (e.g. US DOD, NATO, UN) can qualify for significant Afghan tax exemptions. Moore Afghanistan’s advisors ensure clients access all available reliefs by managing documentation and confirmation processes.
  2. Timely Regulatory Compliance: With ever-evolving tax regimes, proper and punctual monthly, quarterly, and annual filings are critical to maintain compliance and avoid penalties. Moore provides both hands-on filing support and process automation to ensure no deadlines are missed.
  3. Optimize Withholding and Remittance: Businesses must process wage, contractor, rental, and business receipts tax correctly. Moore’s team helps establish robust policies and systems for accurate calculation, distribution, and remittance.

Advanced Techniques: Trusts, Estates, and Cross-Border Transactions

  1. Trusts & Estates Management: Proper structuring of trusts and estates is vital to minimize inheritance taxes, protect assets, and ensure continuity. Moore develops bespoke trust arrangements aligned with Afghan and international law to support succession planning and wealth preservation.
  2. Cross-Border Structuring: For companies with global operations, Moore’s experts advise on creating optimal holding companies, finance hubs, and transfer pricing strategies to reduce withholding taxes, maximize credit for taxes paid abroad, and support global mobility for personnel.

Group Financial Structuring

  1. Efficient Corporate Structures: The right group structure can radically lower overall tax burdens. Moore’s advisors design tailored frameworks, considering both Afghan and international regulations, to balance compliance with optimal tax efficiency. This includes supporting CFC (Controlled Foreign Companies) compliance and BEPS (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting) initiatives.
  2. Permanent Establishment & Reporting: International expansion can lead to unexpected tax liabilities. Moore helps clients assess risks related to permanent establishments and implements solutions for OECD country-by-country reporting and local statutory requirements.
