NEWS | WORK VISAS ACROSS AFRICA: GETTING POSITIVE RESULTS AND SUPPORTING TAX OUTCOMES
The work visa application may be argued as a pre-cursor to getting an expatriate into a country, but in reality, the work permit application can only be correctly done after the tax consultation stage. This explains why tax advisors all over Africa are our clients and equally we are the clients of so many tax practices – there is a symbiotic relationship – we need tax sign-off before we can advise our clients on the correct permit category and, by the same token, tax practices require work permit specialists to ensure that their planning and compliance strategies are correctly executed, let alone contradicted by the permit application.
