International, interdisciplinary, and resilient – for maximum tax security in volatile times.
Global supply chains are under pressure: shifting production sites, geopolitical tensions, evolving regulations, and digital disruption are reshaping logistics and tax landscapes worldwide.
In practice, this means: A new supplier, a different production location, a revised distribution model, a return shipment to a different site, or an updated transfer pricing system can all trigger significant tax consequences – including VAT liabilities, customs duties, sanctions, or profit reallocations. Often all at once, and across multiple jurisdictions.
Tax protection along the supply chain requires a comprehensive consideration of a wide range of influencing factors resulting from regulatory, operational and geopolitical developments. The following section lists key tax issues that must be taken into account on a regular basis in the context of international supply chains.
Rarely is the answer found in a single discipline. What’s needed is an integrated view – from logistics to transfer pricing, VAT, customs, export control, ESG compliance, and legal structuring.
At Baker Tilly, we offer a one-stop solution for tax challenges across your supply chain – combining transfer pricing, VAT, customs and export control into one integrated advisory approach. Our experts work together across disciplines to deliver holistic solutions. Powered by digital tools, we ensure full visibility into tax obligations, risks, and opportunities throughout your value chain.
The following matrix illustrates a typical corporate structure where development, procurement, production, central functions, and distribution are located in different countries. At each stage, specific tax and regulatory challenges arise – and we are here to help you address them:
These examples reflect a selection of our broader service offering, which you can explore here: VAT, Transfer Pricing, Customs & Export Control. We take an integrated approach and advise you across your entire value chain – seamlessly across tax and customs disciplines.
