Process of a Voluntary Disclosure

A Matter of Trust from Start to Finish

In an initial, non-binding, and personal consultation with an experienced tax attorney, your individual situation will be discussed confidentially and in detail until all open questions are satisfactorily clarified. Only in this way can the legal requirement for the completeness of the voluntary disclosure be ensured. Of particular interest are often aspects of income tax as well as gift and inheritance tax.

Afterward, you will grant us power of attorney for the tax office and the foreign bank. We will then promptly contact the bank and obtain the necessary bank documents directly and anonymously.

Upon receipt of the documents, we will determine the income from capital investments and private sales transactions, as well as the taxes owed along with interest. In this context, deductible advertising costs, creditable foreign taxes, and any losses will also be taken into account. We will inform you of our calculated result so that you can instruct the payment to the tax office at the appropriate time.

Due to the complex and confidential nature of the matter, all of the aforementioned steps in the voluntary disclosure process will be handled personally and exclusively by one of our partners. This ensures that you have a direct point of contact throughout, who will keep you regularly informed of the procedure’s status and is always available to answer your questions.
