Tax authorities regularly review corporate income tax returns. During a tax audit, organisations must be able to demonstrate that their tax return is accurate and supported by the underlying financial records and documentation.

RSM supports businesses during corporate income tax audits and helps ensure that they are well prepared throughout the process. Our tax specialists assist with gathering information, reviewing documentation and managing communication with the tax authorities.

A corporate income tax audit requires careful preparation. Together with your organisation, we review financial statements, tax positions and supporting documentation relevant to the audit.

We support clients with:

  • gathering information requested by the tax authorities
  • reviewing tax positions and supporting documentation
  • responding to questions from the tax authorities
  • assisting during discussions and meetings

Our experience with tax audits helps organisations manage the process efficiently and effectively.

Support with audit findings and corrections

If the tax authorities identify discrepancies or issues during an audit, we assist in assessing the findings and determining the appropriate next steps.

We advise on the tax implications and support organisations in addressing errors or resolving differences with the tax authorities.

Cooperative compliance

Many organisations choose to participate in cooperative compliance programmes. These arrangements are based on transparency, trust and effective tax governance.

RSM supports businesses in implementing and maintaining a Tax Control Framework. This provides greater insight into tax processes and helps demonstrate that tax risks are effectively managed.

A well-designed cooperative compliance programme contributes to:

  • greater visibility over tax processes
  • improved management of tax risks
  • a transparent relationship with the tax authorities
  • increased certainty regarding tax compliance

One dedicated team

Our advisors support organisations both during tax audits and in the implementation of cooperative compliance. Because we understand your business and tax position, we can tailor our support to your specific circumstances.

This helps ensure that your organisation remains prepared and in control of its tax obligations.
