Our course in international taxation will enable you to develop an in-depth and practical understanding

Aimed at inhouse tax and cross-border specialists from multinational companies, tax practitioners in private practice and revenue authorities.

International Taxation: Choose your Award

International tax is the study and practice that centres on the application of taxes and tax law in the international community as it relates to individuals, businesses and government agencies conducting cross-border commerce. The myriad of tax treaties, territorial tax laws and their effect on extraterritorial income requires the interpretive expertise of scholars and practitioners who specialise in International Taxation.
The complexities of International Taxation dominate the landscape for multinational organisations trying to conduct business in multiple jurisdictions. This often results in international tax playing a major role in the conducting of cross-border transactions.
This programme, developed by leading International Taxation specialists, at both advisory and in-house level, will provide a firm grounding on all the “must-know” areas of International Taxation.
