North America

The United Kingdon (UK) continues to be one of the most popular destinations for United States (US) outward investment, both for business here and as a springboard for the European market. To care for this, Vantis has a strong team dedicated to providing full support to deal with corporate and personal needs for accounting, taxation and back office requirements.

Our team is ideally placed to provide the broad range of expertise and services to guide a company safely through the procedures of initial UK corporate strategy and structure, formation, setting up and to provide ongoing hands on support.

International Tax

In addition to other key elements, the securing of bespoke superior international tax advice is essential to the success of any cross Atlantic business venture.

The tax environments of the UK and of North America are arguably the most aggressive and strict in the world and therefore, without such knowledge, the tax cost of foreign business expansion into these areas can make or break any new business endeavours.

Vantis has an International Tax team which prides itself on having many years of experience in not only providing fiscal advice to American and Canadian companies expanding into the UK, but also understands the  personal, professional and cultural business requirements of such entrepreneurs.

As members of HLB International, we also have access to quality advisers worldwide and work closely with our HLB colleagues in the US.
