Latin America Guide 2027 : Venezuela
Ranked Individual
Provided by VICTUM Legal
Victum Legal’s Tax practice advises multinational companies, local business groups, regulated entities and investment vehicles on complex Venezuelan tax matters, combining technical depth with a practical understanding of clients’ business operations.
The team has particular strength in tax audits, administrative and sanction proceedings, tax risk management and ongoing strategic advisory. Its work covers corporate income tax (ISLR), VAT, municipal taxes and parafiscal contributions, including multi-year audits, assessment challenges and matters with cross-border elements.
Recent mandates reflect the practice’s evolution towards increasingly sophisticated and non-routine matters, particularly audit defence, integrated tax risk management and strategic structuring. The team regularly advises clients operating in sectors including oil & gas services, real estate and construction, healthcare, technology, logistics, education and consumer goods.
A defining feature of the practice is the continuity of its client relationships, with Victum Legal frequently acting as long-term tax counsel rather than on isolated matters, providing responsive, business-oriented advice across clients’ ongoing operations and tax challenges.
