Analyse, Process, Review: A Streamlined Approach to Cross-Border Compliance
The Crossbord® Solution adheres to a simple yet effective methodology: analyse, process, and review. The process commences with a comprehensive analysis of your tax positions, compliance requirements, and data needs for each case or employee. This is followed by the processing of the necessary information and actions, which includes onboarding, reporting, and adjusting data in real time. The final stage involves a review of the results and the execution of the year-end reconciliation, utilising the data that has been meticulously collected throughout the year.
1. Evaluation
This phase involves a comprehensive analysis of tax obligations, social security requirements, and registration needs. Key actions include identifying permanent establishment risks, assessing labor leasing obligations, and determining the applicability of double taxation treaties. Detailed compliance strategies are developed to address these findings.
2. Ongoing Operations and Compliance
During this phase, payroll and compliance systems are set up and maintained to ensure regulatory adherence. Regular updates are made to align with changes in work patterns, tax laws, or jurisdictional requirements. Automated tools are often leveraged to streamline reporting and minimize errors.
3. Regular Reviews
Critical factors such as tax residency, work patterns, and compliance assumptions are reassessed periodically. Proactive adjustments are made to address any changes, ensuring the business or employee remains fully compliant throughout the year.
4. Year-End Reconciliation and Reporting
The final phase focuses on closing the fiscal year with accurate tax and payroll reporting. This includes preparing tax returns, reconciling payroll data, and ensuring all compliance requirements are met across jurisdictions. Comprehensive documentation is prepared for audits or inquiries from authorities.
The Crossbord® Solution offersCross-Border Tax Compliance Services
The Crossbord® Solution is our an all-encompassing cross-border tax compliance service designed to manage the intricacies of cross-border tax, payroll, human resources, and advisory services – our unique approach to handling cross-border tax and compliance issues. Our unique approach addresses cross-border tax compliance issues with precision and expertise. It is specifically tailored for businesses that are either dispatching or receiving employees to or from Denmark, thereby handling the complex and often time-consuming tasks of ensuring compliance, avoiding penalties, and establishing peace of mind for both the employer and the employees.
We begin each case with a comprehensive analysis of the tax positions, compliance requirements, and identification of necessary data for each employee.
Following the analysis, we conduct a thorough onboarding process to ensure compliance. This is typically an iterative process, where we receive information in real time, allowing us to take action or alert stakeholders, thereby avoiding any unfortunate situations or escalations.
The iteration concludes with the year-end reconciliation, for which we have collected data throughout the year. Our clients appreciate our process for its ease of execution and the peace of mind that comes from not having to worry about collecting all data at once, or the potential late fees or penalties that might arise from not adjusting data in real time.
