The flow of business, combined with the expanding economy world-wide, generally makes a business look for international opportunities to expand their sales and distribution base to international markets. Some opportunities allow businesses to become more competitive. But, in many cases, businesses that take advantage of international opportunities do not address the issue of income tax when deciding the profitability and feasibility of the decision.

International tax opportunities include:

• Tax planning related to structuring and organizing the business; tax compliance both in the United States and the foreign country; transfer pricing; and expatriate tax returns.
• Business development assistance which includes strategic advice, location selection, and international business partner searches.
• Assistance with human resource related issues both domestically and internationally.
