International Services

Haines Watts are a member of ANTEA, an Alliance of Independent Firms around the world that are large enough to offer a full range of advisory services, as well as being small enough to give the personal attention that clients require in their local marketplace.

When accessing international markets it is vital entrepreneurs visit them and establish local links that will help them get their import/export business up and running. Understanding local customs and cultures is important if businesses are to succeed in these foreign markets and so it is imperative to have a local presence.

Through our worldwide network of independent accounting, taxation and business advisors, we are able to provide this local presence. Member firms of ANTEA are selected for their local influence, international capabilities and ability to be at the forefront of commercial activities. Their expertise and local knowledge of the area/country can save precious time and money in getting the business up and running in terms of the right location and organisational structure. Naturally they are able to assist in the more mundane matters like accounting and taxation but more importantly it is the local business advice that they can offer that can be so vital.

Our UK partners will co-ordinate all overseas assignments to ensure that the work is carried out efficiently and within agreed deadlines.

Using their understanding of local commercial and economic issues member firms are able to provide practical help and advice to smooth the way for operations in new territories and to help develop existing investments.
