Practice area
Corporate tax, transfer pricing, VAT, customs and cross-border tax structuring.
Tax law in Africa encompasses corporate income tax, VAT/GST, customs and excise, transfer pricing and the negotiation of investment incentives. South Africa's SARS administers one of the continent's most sophisticated tax systems, with transfer pricing rules aligned to OECD guidelines and a comprehensive double-taxation treaty network. Nigeria's Federal Inland Revenue Service and the state-level revenue authorities create a multi-layered tax environment; Kenya's KRA is a vigorous tax administrator. Cross-border tax structuring — particularly involving Mauritius, the UAE and Luxembourg as holding jurisdictions — is a significant practice area as African groups expand regionally and international investors structure African investments. Tax disputes before the Tax Court (South Africa), the Tax Appeal Tribunal (Nigeria) and the High Court (Kenya) are a growing area of work.
