Spanish Desk: German-Spanish tax and legal advice Frankfurt

Advice on German-Spanish business relations by Spanish-speaking tax advisors

Thanks to modern commercial aviation, the flight time between the Spanish mainland and Germany is less than 3 hours. And yet, in some respects, business life in both countries is worlds apart – both in terms of the mentality of the business partners and in terms of the legal and tax framework.

In our Spain Desk with its tailor-made advisory approaches for small and medium-sized enterprises from Spain, we have combined our many years of experience with Spanish clients.
