TESTIMONIAL

2021 Milrem Robotics-Grant Thornton Baltic-350x350px.pngJust as it is important in life to have friends you can trust, so it is important in a business where reliable partners are priced in gold.
I am glad that we found such a partner in the Grant Thornton Baltic.

Over the years, we have received advice from Grant Thornton Baltic specialists on various international tax issues: for example, taxation of foreign employees, transfer pricing policy and documentation, correct taxation of cross-border investments and expansion - the list could go on and on.

The big plus is that Grant Thornton Baltic specialists know the tax law of different countries in detail, and therefore we received expert advice on expanding our business to Finland, Sweden, Germany and the Netherlands. I would definitely recommend Grant Thornton Baltic to others!
