      Establishing a business, project, employing staff in Denmark, or new project abroad involves navigating complex, interconnected tax, and regulatory requirements. Corporate tax, transfer pricing, indirect tax, employee tax, payroll obligations, immigration, and social security all impact each other, making a coordinated and 360-degree approach essential.

      At KPMG Acor Tax, our Projects and Establishment team, among other things deliver compliance solutions.

      We assist with identification of employment tax issues and assistance with resolving them before they escalate into significant tax problems.

      Employer contributions to social security differ significantly across countries. Understanding these rules is crucial to managing the costs of working abroad and ensuring employees receive appropriate health insurance, sickness benefits, maternity benefits, unemployment benefits, family benefits, and public pensions. This is particularly relevant for Danish employers, as Denmark's social security costs are relatively low compared to other European nations. 

      We provide advisory services on all social security matters, but also on particularly complex matters, within applicable legislation on social security, set policies and processes as well as the implementation itself.

      In Denmark, foreign national employees working in Denmark must make sure to have the necessary work permit. Working without the necessary permit can have significant consequences.

      We can assist you to avoid the risk and to make sure you are covered correctly. 

      With the number of individuals working cross-border continues to rise, businesses expanding internationally and remote work becoming more prevalent, understanding international tax laws is essential for both employers and employees. 

      We offer a broad array of strategic (advisory) and administrative (outsourcing) services to help improve your business processes: e.g. policy review, design and development, international assignment process improvement and re-engineering.

      Efficient payroll systems ensure timely and accurate compensation, helping organizations manage their global workforce effectively while adhering to international standards.

      We assist with identification of payroll tax issues and assistance with resolving them before they escalate into significant tax problems.

      Rewards and incentives can be a great way to attract and retain talent, but ensuring compliance with Danish tax regulations is crucial for both employer and employee.

      Together, we can discuss your reward policy and how to optimize your reward offerings for tax purposes and ensure successful implementation and compliance both on the employer and employee side to avoid any surprises or penalties.

      Operating in the Nordics or Øresund region often means navigating multiple tax systems, social security frameworks, and employer obligations simultaneously. 

      We specialize in advising companies and individuals on the interaction between tax and social security regulations across the Nordic countries and the Øresund region. Our services address not only individual taxation and international social security, but also employer reporting obligations, corporate taxation, VAT, transfer pricing, business immigration, and labor law considerations.
