Tax Services

Cross-border tax, structured properly.

Centry helps globally mobile founders, investors and families restructure tax around the reality of their life: residence, company ownership, income, investments, property, digital assets and family plans, and around its biggest moments: a company sale, a significant windfall, a move across borders. One team designs, implements and monitors the whole position.

What we help with

Tax is not just a filing. It is the structure around your life.

Most tax work starts after the decision has been made: the move booked, the shares sold, the dividend paid. Centry works the other way around: the structure is designed first, around where you live, where your companies sit, how assets are held and when liquidity arrives, so each filing is just the paperwork on a plan that already works.

Tax restructuring

Redesign how your position fits together: which entity holds what, where income arises, how profits are extracted, and in what order things happen. Sequencing matters: the same steps taken in a different order can produce a very different tax bill.

"If I could set this up from scratch, would it look anything like it does today?"

Residency planning

Plan moves properly: day counts, ties and treaty tie-breaker tests, special regimes such as IFICI, the timing of arrival and departure, split-year treatment, and the documentation that proves it all if a tax authority asks.

"If I move next year, what do I need to do before I leave?"

Company and asset structuring

Decide where companies, holding structures, property, investment accounts and digital assets should sit, weighing withholding taxes, treaty access, exit charges and reporting duties, not just headline rates.

"My company is in one country, my family in another, my investments in a third, does this still make sense?"

Returns and compliance

Every jurisdiction's filings, elections, disclosures and deadlines, tracked in one calendar and prepared from one consistent set of facts, so nothing filed in one country contradicts what's filed in another.

"Who's making sure my filings in different countries actually agree with each other?"

Regime planning

Review relevant regimes such as IFICI and other cross-border tax frameworks in the context of the full client position.

Crypto and digital asset tax

Bring crypto and digital assets into the tax, custody, liquidity and estate planning picture.

Exit and windfall planning

Structure ahead of a company sale, earn-out, option exercise, inheritance or other significant windfall: where the gain lands, when it's triggered, and how the proceeds are structured for what comes next.

Property and investment income

Plan rental income, dividends, interest and capital gains across borders, including withholding taxes, foreign tax credits and treaty relief, so the same income isn't taxed twice by default.

Why normal tax advice breaks

Once your life crosses borders, single-country advice stops working.

You are no longer dealing with one tax system; you are dealing with several at once, plus the treaties that decide between them. Residence rules, source rules and tie-breakers interact, and a step that is efficient in one country can be expensive in another. Getting it right takes a consolidated view of everything you own and earn, working knowledge of each country's rules, and one team coordinating advisers across all of them. Centry builds that view, then designs, implements and monitors the plan against it.

How Centry works

A practical tax process connected to the full plan.

Cross-border tax fails in the gaps: between advisers, between countries, between the plan and the paperwork. Centry runs one process across all of it, with tax and wealth treated as a single operating picture.

Diagnose

The full fact base

Residence and day counts, entities, income sources, assets, existing structures, the treaties in play, documents and deadlines: one consistent picture before anything is recommended.

Plan

A detailed tax plan

Options weighed across every jurisdiction involved: regimes, the timing of liquidity, structural changes and their wealth consequences, grounded in your facts and objectives.

Implement

Filed, formed and moved

Forms, elections, registrations, account openings, custodian instructions and structure changes, actioned with your authority and the right professional involvement.

Monitor

Kept current

Law changes, treaty changes, deadlines and life changes tracked continuously, so the plan is adjusted before it goes stale, not at the next annual review.

FAQs

Does Centry give tax advice?

Yes. Tax restructuring is one of Centry's core areas of work. Centry provides tax advice in-house through a combination of bespoke software and Wealth Engineers who are legal professionals. Website content is general information only. Personal tax advice requires a client engagement, review of the relevant facts and documents, and appropriate jurisdiction-specific analysis.

What is the Centry tax process?

The typical process is diagnostic, detailed tax plan, implementation and ongoing monitoring. Centry first builds the fact base across residence, assets, entities, income, investments, family position, documents and deadlines. Then Centry prepares a detailed tax plan, supports implementation and monitors changes over time.

Can Centry help before moving country?

Yes. Centry can help organise the facts before a move, including current residence, destination rules, family location, company ownership, assets, income, investment accounts, property, deadlines and existing advisers.

Is the tax calculator advice?

No. The tax calculator is live, but it is an indicative planning tool only. It can help frame questions and planning scenarios, but nothing should be relied upon until a detailed tax plan has been undertaken and reviewed against the client's facts and documents.

Can Centry implement tax structures?

Yes. With client authority and appropriate professional input where required, Centry can help implement tax structures, submit forms, open accounts, instruct relevant parties and monitor the plan after implementation.
