Tax Law

Governments worldwide are aggressively pursuing additional revenue, and crises-related restructurings pose new and difficult challenges for tax planning and dispute resolution. So does the Tanzanian Government and the East African Community. At Breakthrough Attorneys, we understand the business and legal intricacies of taxation especially when it involves foreign investments and have thus forged an ability to design, implement and defend tax planning structures.

We are vastly skilled in advising in direct and indirect taxation, transfer pricing, and dispute resolution. Our dedicated lawyers, consulting experts and advisers are in touch with a changing tax law, practices and dispute resolution techniques and can help design, implement, and defend tax strategies for international operations and transactions.

Our Lawyers have served as trusted tax law counsel to many companies and we have experienced tax litigators who can represent clients in all phases of tax dispute resolution. We also advice on Tax exemptions; Tax Returns and Assessments; VAT; Income Tax and other forms of levies and duties.
