Successful representation of a major multinational corporation in a complex cross-border tax dispute regarding transfer pricing adjustments and corporate restructuring around the globe.

01. The Challenge.

The client faced substantial tax penalties and alleged back taxes from the Turkish Revenue Administration following an aggressive corporate restructuring. The authority challenged the client's transfer pricing methodologies, creating significant financial vulnerability and a threat of double taxation.

02. Our Process.

We deployed a multi-stage defense strategy leveraging deep public-sector regulatory insights and comprehensive technical tax law application to challenge the audit findings.

• 

  Audit Analysis

  Conducting a meticulous review of the Revenue Administration’s audit report to pinpoint procedural and substantive errors.

• 

  Pre-Litigation Assessment

  Evaluating the client’s global transfer pricing documentation against local Turkish statutory requirements.

• 

  Strategic Defense

  Representing the client directly before the tax judiciary and negotiation committees to dispute the contested tax bases.

03. The Result.

The tax court ruled entirely in favor of our client, completely cancelling the tax assessments and penalties. This landmark decision successfully protected the client’s local assets and established a critical legal precedent for cross-border corporate restructurings.
