Case Studies
The rules for doing business around the world have changed. Almost every aspect of an international company has been touched by recent world events. Policy changes in the 21st century present many challenges for global companies. From increased expenses to lost productivity due to increased regulation, international companies must run their businesses more competitively and efficiently than ever before.
According to the 2018 report from WISERTrade and U.S. Census Bureau, Houston exported to 214 countries and imported from 194 countries during the first 11 months of 2018. That's where PKF Texas offers the experience that counts. Our goal is to work with you to minimize tax consequences and ensure that your business maximizes all operating opportunities. We do this by offering tax, accounting advisory services, assurance and consulting solutions that deliver bottom-line results.
We work with companies moving to the U.S. market as well as domestic companies that do business around the world. Our international service offering helps companies file the necessary documents for moving into the United States. We can handle all of your start-up needs; whether you've been in business a short while or many years, the start-up requirements are very similar when moving to a new country to do business. Our international professionals also offer you vast experience with global tax minimization strategies. From start to finish, we understand the unique requirements for international companies. In addition to the extensive resources available in our Houston office, we offer the experience of professionals from 216 PKF firms in 120 countries worldwide.
