Provided tax advice relating to the contractual structure being modified inside the group

The lawyers of the practice advised a company managing a hotel of a major global network that decided to change the contractual structure inside the group with a view to more effectively distributing functions, assets and the tax burden. The client required a detailed analysis of the tax implications for the forthcoming 2-3 year period.

Our lawyers prepared an opinion in which they described the tax and other consequences that could have stopped the work of the hotel if they had not been taken into account.

The project was especially complex in view of its comprehensive nature: it was required to analyse not only tax legislation, but also the rules governing other aspects of hotel operations (restaurant, bar, contractual relationships with utility services, suppliers and other persons). As a result, the client decided to implement the project.
