Tax questions usually arise from real business situations: day-to-day operations, periods of change or issues that require a broader perspective.
That is why we look beyond the individual tax task and consider the wider context of your business.
TAX ADVISORY IN MUNICH FOR COMPANIES AND ENTREPRENEURS
Tax matters rarely arise in isolation. They affect day-to-day compliance just as much as investment, growth, financing, succession, transactions and international structures.
At GKK PARTNERS, personal advice goes hand in hand with specialist expertise across tax advisory and audit. You work with a dedicated contact who understands your business and your objectives and brings in the right specialists whenever broader or more complex issues arise.
This is how we support mid-sized and family-owned businesses, entrepreneurs and other clients with complex advisory needs – in Munich and beyond.
TAX ADVICE STARTS WITH YOUR BUSINESS
Tax returns, annual financial statements, deadlines and communication with the tax authorities should work reliably without consuming unnecessary time and resources. We take care of ongoing tax matters and keep an eye on developments that may affect your business.
Growth, new shareholders, investments, restructurings or succession can change the tax requirements facing a business. We consider the tax implications early and help you make well-informed decisions.
International operations, VAT matters, tax audits or transactions often raise complex questions. Your dedicated contact brings together the right colleagues across GKK PARTNERS to work through them with you and develop a practical solution.
ONGOING TAX ADVISORY & COMPLIANCE
Tax compliance is part of everyday business – but it should not dominate it. We help you meet filing, documentation and other tax requirements reliably while keeping an eye on developments that may affect your decisions.
For us, ongoing tax advisory goes beyond routine compliance. Your dedicated contact understands your business and works with our specialists to address issues that extend beyond the current tax return.
- Preparation of corporate tax returns and tax balance sheets
- Support with filing, reporting and documentation requirements
- Review of tax assessments and correspondence with the tax authorities
- Monitoring of tax deadlines and ongoing compliance requirements
- Personal income tax returns as part of our advisory services for entrepreneurs and private clients
For the secure and efficient exchange of data and documents, you can use our digital myGKK solutions.
ANNUAL & CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WITH REAL INSIGHT
Annual financial statements fulfil statutory and tax requirements. At the same time, they provide valuable insight into the financial development of your business and form an important basis for decision-making.
We support you in preparing reliable annual and consolidated financial statements and ensure that relevant information is available in the right format and at the right time – for management and shareholders as well as banks and other stakeholders.
- Preparation of annual financial statements under German GAAP (HGB)
- Preparation of consolidated financial statements
- Support with IFRS financial statements and reporting
- Preparation of tax balance sheets
- Expert opinions on accounting matters
- Group accounting policies and reporting packages
TAX AUDITS & DISPUTE RESOLUTION
A tax audit or dispute with the tax authorities can quickly absorb significant time and internal resources. We help you prepare the process in a structured way, present the relevant tax matters clearly and represent your position vis-à-vis the competent authorities.
We support you from the preparation and review of the required information through to the technical argumentation of your tax position. Where a tax assessment appears incorrect, we assess the available options and guide you through the next steps.
- Support during tax audits
- Preparation and review of audit-relevant matters
- Support during social security audits
- Review of tax assessments and objection proceedings
- Representation and communication with the tax authorities
- Support with mutual agreement procedures, deferral requests and other applications
A DEDICATED CONTACT. SOLUTIONS BUILT TOGETHER.
Good tax advice starts with someone who understands your business and your objectives. At the same time, complex issues often require different perspectives and areas of expertise. For us, the key is to bring both together: personal responsibility and the right team for the task at hand.
At GKK PARTNERS, you work with a dedicated contact who coordinates the advisory process and brings in the right colleagues whenever needed – for example in international tax, VAT, business succession, restructuring or transactions.
This means clear responsibilities, short lines of communication and solutions developed across disciplines – without creating a new point of contact for every issue.
When your business is changing
Growth, changes in ownership or transactions are not everyday situations. Tax considerations should therefore be part of the discussion before the key decisions have already been made. We support you early in the process and help ensure that the tax implications form part of the overall solution.
Planning business succession with confidence
When a business or private wealth passes to the next generation, tax, commercial and personal considerations come together. We help you assess the available options at an early stage and develop a structure that supports a sustainable succession.
Explore Inheritance & Succession PlanningAdapting structures as your business evolves
Growth, new shareholders or changing business models may be a reason to review existing corporate structures. We analyse the tax implications and support you in developing and implementing solutions that fit the future direction of your business.
Explore restructuringManaging tax implications in transactions
When buying or selling a business, tax risks and structuring options need to be transparent from the outset. We support you with the tax analysis of the transaction and help turn the findings into well-informed decisions.
Explore Tax Due DiligenceWhen complex questions require a broader perspective
Some business questions require more than one perspective. At GKK PARTNERS, your dedicated contact brings together the right colleagues across tax, accounting and finance to address complex issues and develop solutions that fit your situation.
International Tax & Transfer Pricing
Cross-border activities can raise complex questions around corporate structures, transfer pricing and international tax. We help you assess the implications and develop solutions that work across jurisdictions.

VAT
VAT can quickly become complex, particularly where business models, supply chains or international activities are involved. We help you assess the relevant requirements and implement practical solutions in your day-to-day operations.

FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING FOR BETTER DECISION-MAKING
Up-to-date and reliable financial data does more than support tax returns and annual financial statements. It provides transparency on business performance and creates a sound basis for planning and decision-making.
Through our Financial Services, we combine digital financial accounting, reporting and efficient processes. We work with established applications and interfaces – including DATEV – and tailor workflows and collaboration to the requirements of your business.
