Questions & Answers

Everything You Need to Know Before Seeking Legal Advice

First Hidden - do not touch

What should you know about taxation and financial planning before immigrating to Israel?

Before immigrating to Israel, it is essential to carry out early tax planning (“Pre-Arrival Planning”) to minimize unnecessary tax exposure. Proper planning includes reviewing your asset structure, foreign-source income, and preparing to take full advantage of the tax benefits available to new immigrants and returning residents. Professional guidance at this stage helps maximize available exemptions and avoid costly mistakes in the future.

Can I retain foreign assets and business activities after returning to Israel?

Yes, provided it is structured correctly from both a legal and tax perspective. It is important to organize your business activities in a way that avoids double taxation and unnecessary exposure to the Israeli tax authorities. Our firm provides comprehensive guidance throughout the process, including designing the appropriate business structure, handling reporting obligations, and protecting foreign assets and companies.

What is the difference between civil tax proceedings and criminal tax proceedings?

Civil tax proceedings involve disputes with the Israel Tax Authority, such as tax assessments, objections, and appeals. Criminal tax proceedings, on the other hand, deal with offenses such as tax evasion, false reporting, or money laundering, and may result in criminal prosecution. Early legal representation can often help prevent a matter from escalating into criminal proceedings.

What should I do if I receive a summons or am under investigation by the Israel Tax Authority?

If you receive a summons or are notified of a tax investigation, it is essential to seek legal advice immediately before providing any statements or documents. Early legal representation can have a significant impact on the outcome of the case, including the possibility of reaching out-of-court settlements and minimizing legal risks.

Why is ongoing legal counsel important for a business, rather than seeking legal assistance only when problems arise?

Ongoing legal counsel enables businesses to operate with confidence, reduce legal risks, and establish a sound contractual framework with suppliers, customers, and business partners. Proactive legal guidance helps prevent future disputes, protects the company’s interests, and supports long-term, sustainable growth.
