Who we help
Most of our work starts with one of these situations.
Why clients work with us
Most tax problems aren’t caused by a wrong number. They start with a registration nobody made.
- 01
Obligations first
We start by listing every registration and return your business owes, in each country it touches. Most costly problems are omissions, not arithmetic.
- 02
Cross-border is the normal case
A founder in Lahore with a Delaware LLC, a Dubai free zone company and UK customers isn’t an edge case for us. The practice is organised around the four systems and where they meet.
- 03
Books first, returns second
Returns are prepared from reconciled records, not bank statement totals, so the figures hold up if they’re ever questioned.
- 04
Straight answers about limits
When something needs a lawyer, a licensed signature or an authority’s decision, we say so plainly rather than overpromise.
How it works
What happens after you get in touch.
Five steps, the same for a single EIN application as for a year of bookkeeping in four countries.
A first conversation
By video or phone. We ask where the business is registered, where it trades, what’s already been filed and what’s worrying you. You don’t need to prepare anything formal.
A written scope and quote
We set out exactly what we’ll handle, what we’ll need from you, the timeline and the fee, in an engagement letter. Nothing starts until you’ve agreed it.
Secure document collection
You get a checklist specific to your filings, not a generic list, and upload documents through a secure portal rather than email or messaging apps.
Preparation and review
One person prepares the work and a second reviews it before anything reaches you. Questions come to you in one batch, not a drip of emails.
Your approval, then filing
You see what will be submitted and approve it. We file, send you the confirmation, and add your next obligations to the calendar we keep for you.
Across borders
The same job has a different name in each country.
If you know the term in one system, this shows its counterpart in the others. Every entry links to a page explaining what’s involved.
Key filing dates
Four tax calendars, month by month.
Every key statutory deadline, by month and country. Tap any entry for the detail. Dates move for weekends, holidays and official extensions; we confirm the ones that apply to you.

Questions
Before you get in touch.
What people usually ask first. Country-specific questions are on each country page.
All frequently asked questionsDo you work with clients who aren’t based in the country they need help with?
Yes, and it’s a large part of what we do. A founder in Lahore with a US LLC, a Dubai free zone company selling into the UK, or a US company with staff in Pakistan is exactly the kind of situation our four-country practice is set up for. We work by video, phone and a secure document portal, so where you live doesn’t change how we work together.
What happens after I get in touch?
We arrange a short first conversation to understand your situation. After that we send a written scope: what we’ll do, what we need from you, the timeline and the fee. Work starts only once you’ve agreed to it.
I’ve missed deadlines or haven’t filed for a few years. Can you still help?
Yes. We start by mapping what is outstanding in each country and which items carry the most penalty exposure, then deal with them in that order. Where an authority offers a voluntary disclosure route or penalty relief, we explain whether it’s worth considering in your case.
How do your fees work?
We publish them. Registrations and returns carry a fixed professional fee, or a stated range that depends on complexity, and recurring work such as bookkeeping is a monthly fee. Government and third-party costs are shown separately, and you have the total in writing before anything starts.
Can you work alongside my existing accountant or bookkeeper?
Yes. Clients often keep a local bookkeeper and bring us in for cross-border filings, a specific registration, or a year-end review. We agree who does what at the start so nothing falls between two firms.
Can you guarantee how quickly a registration will be approved?
No, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Processing times belong to the IRS, HMRC, Companies House, the UAE Federal Tax Authority, the FBR, the SECP and the state, emirate and provincial authorities. We can tell you what’s typical, submit complete applications, and follow up when something stalls.
