Support in the conclusion of a cross-border service agreement
Support in the conclusion of a cross-border service agreement with a foreign affiliate
Assistance in the legal formalization of services provided by the headquarters. As intercompany transactions, especially those involving provision of services, are high-risk ones and are often scrutinized by tax authorities, the company needed legal support in terms of consistent formalization in accordance with the Russian laws.
FBK Legal lawyers developed a service compensation scheme, prepared a service description, and identified potential risks. We explained to the client what kind of claims could be expected from tax authorities and what were the requirements in terms of currency control to payments for the management of the Russian company. In view of the aforesaid, our lawyers prepared a foreign economic agreement for services with the foreign affiliate.
