Practice Areas

Practice Areas in legal, foreign exchange, customs, tax and corporate law

We support domestic companies, foreign subsidiaries and business groups seeking foreign exchange regime advisory, customs lawyers, tax consulting, corporate law and legal support for operations in Colombia and abroad.

COORDINATED SOLUTIONS

Coordinated solutions for international operations

International operations don’t happen in separate compartments. A payment abroad can have foreign exchange, tax and contractual impact. An import can involve tariff classification, customs valuation, accounting records, foreign exchange obligations and corporate documentation. A foreign investment may require registrations, updates, reports and corporate decisions.
That’s why our practice areas work in a coordinated way, with special emphasis on the Colombian foreign exchange regime and its connections to customs, foreign trade, tax and corporate law.
