Along the years Shtainmetz Aminoach accounting firm gained wide experience in the pre-ruling institution with the tax authorities. Gaining pre-ruling reduces the uncertainty component and the businesses risk when it comes to complex taxing aspects.
The firm operates in conjunction with the tax authorities to achieve pre-ruling in all the relevant fields: income tax, real estate tax, VAT, international taxation, mergers and splitting. The ruling agreement achieved with the tax authorities is dual normative, both contract laws and administrative laws.
When submitting a pre-ruling the firm is meticulous in guarding the client's anonymity, and only as the treatment progresses his full details are given. Achieving pre-ruling approvals is done for both our regular clients and for clients treated just for this aspect.
