Our founder worked as a Tax Inspector at the Kosovo Tax Administration (ATK) and then as a Senior Tax and Finance Consultant at EY. We use that experience to keep your filings correct, your positions defensible and your tax costs planned rather than discovered late. One team covers VAT, corporate and personal income tax, audits, disputes and cross-border structures.
Advisory, compliance and dispute support from a team that knows how Kosovo's tax administration works from the inside.

Scope
Ten areas of tax work, one accountable team
01
Tax advisory
Clear answers, in writing and in plain language, on how Kosovo tax law applies to a specific transaction, contract or decision. We tell you what the rule says, how ATK is likely to read it and what we recommend.
Written opinions on transactions and contracts
Tax review of new business lines and pricing
Interpretation of laws, administrative instructions and ATK guidance
Ongoing advice on a monthly retainer
02
VAT advisory
The standard VAT rate is 18% and the reduced rate is 8%, with registration mandatory once annual turnover exceeds EUR 30,000. We check that every invoice is treated correctly and that your monthly return and payment reach ATK by the 20th of the following month.

03
Corporate income tax
Corporate income tax in Kosovo is 10% of taxable profit, paid in quarterly advances by 15 April, 15 July, 15 October and 15 January, with the annual return and final payment due by 31 March. We calculate the advances, prepare the annual return and document every adjustment from accounting profit to taxable profit.

04
Personal income tax
Since September 2024, wages at the main employer are taxed at 0% up to EUR 250 a month, 8% from EUR 250.01 to EUR 450 and 10% above EUR 450, while secondary employers withhold a flat 10%. We make sure the right rates are applied and help individuals whose income goes beyond a salary.

05
Tax health checks
A structured review of your filings, records and positions for the open years, carried out the way an inspector would approach it. You receive a written list of exposures ranked by risk, with the fix and the cost of each.

06
Tax audits support
When ATK opens an audit, we prepare the file, attend meetings with the inspectors and answer every request in writing. Because our founder worked as an inspector, we know what the audit team will ask for and how your records should be presented.
Readiness review before the first meeting
Preparation and indexing of documents
Attendance at meetings with ATK inspectors
Review of the draft audit report and findings
07
Tax dispute support
If you disagree with an assessment, we build the written case: the facts, the law and the evidence. We support you through the appeal within ATK and work alongside your lawyers if the matter goes to court.
Analysis of the assessment and the grounds for appeal
Drafting of objections and appeals
Tracking of every appeal deadline
Support for legal counsel in court proceedings
08
Tax planning
Planning means making decisions with the tax effect known in advance: how to structure a group, pay founders, invest or exit. Every recommendation rests on current law and is documented so it holds up under review.
Group and holding structure review
Founder and shareholder remuneration
Tax effect modelling for investments and restructurings
Annual planning review before the year end
09
Tax compliance
We prepare and file your returns through ATK's EDI system on a fixed calendar, so nothing depends on memory. Every filing comes with a payment slip and a short summary of what was declared.
Monthly VAT returns by the 20th of the following month
Payroll tax and pension declarations by the 15th
Quarterly corporate income tax advances
Annual corporate income tax return by 31 March

International taxation
Cross-border activity raises questions about where profit is taxed, which treaty applies and what must be withheld. We advise foreign investors entering Kosovo and Kosovo companies selling abroad, with particular focus on the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
Permanent establishment and residence analysis
Double tax treaty relief where a treaty exists
Transfer pricing documentation for related party transactions
