His intercultural background enables him to develop an atmosphere of trust and understanding as a basis for a reliable business relationship. As a German tax advisor, he is familiar with the complex rules and expectations local tax offices have. Moreover, the other members of our partnership have more than 25 years of experience in serving Japanese companies. They liaise with tax officers, external auditors and the group's head office in legal and tax matters.

When advising Japanese clients, individual needs are our paramount concern. SHWP assist you in all issues arising from the process of establishing and monitoring a German subsidiary, giving due consideration to Japanese views. This includes providing advice on wage tax and social security matters relating to seconded Japanese employees, and preparing their personal tax returns.

We offer a one-stop shop concept. This means that we have consultants for all relevant areas under one roof. Thanks to this concept, legal assessments can be forwarded to the various departments of our firm without any loss of information. To the extent permitted by law, we conduct annual audits on our clients' premises.
