About

Provided by Echecopar

Our Tax Practice advises national and foreign companies on the tax effects of their transactions, investments, and operations in Peru, providing strategic solutions to every challenge. We specialize in supervision proceedings and tax litigation before SUNAT, the Tax Court, municipal governments, and the Judiciary.

 

We have extensive experience in tax planning to optimize income and expenses, with a strong focus on structuring mergers and acquisitions, sophisticated financial operations (syndicated loans, bond issuances, public offerings, asset securitizations), and investments through mutual funds, FIRBIs, and FIBRAs—always aiming for the lowest possible tax cost.

 

We advise on the tax analysis of payments to non-domiciled entities (technical assistance, royalties, digital services, interest, dividends), and assess the possibility of establishing permanent establishments for foreign companies. We also provide planning and advice on Peru’s double taxation treaties, supporting the creation and reorganization of corporate structures at both local and international levels.
