POELLATH advises founder on global mobility and supports in the fulfilment of his tax obligations in Germany

The advice relates to tax residency both under German law and under the double tax treaty with the United States. Due to the holding of shares and options in internationally active companies with different legal forms and the consideration of a potential relocation to the United States, comprehensive advice was also provided on possible German exit taxation.

Various aspects relating to cryptocurrencies were also analysed.

In close cooperation with US colleagues, the client was advised on the optimised application of the US-German tax treaty rules in their respective tax declarations in both countries.

POELLATH advised the founder with the following team:

• Dr. Andreas Richter (partner, private clients & foundations, Berlin / Frankfurt aM)
• Dr. Marcus Niermann (counsel, private clients & foundations, Berlin)
• Nikola Hertel (associate, private clients & foundations, Berlin)
