Tax cases

Have you received a decision from SKAT? It can be useful to complain about the tax

Many citizens and businesses see it as hopeless to go against the tax authorities. SkatteInform is an advisory company that offers specialized assistance to both citizens and companies in relation to tax matters. We have tax specialists with more than 25 years of experience who can help you take your case to the authorities, ensure your legal certainty and help you pay the correct tax — no more or less. The aim is for the decision to be as accurate and fair as possible.

Experienced and practical advice in tax matters

You are always welcome to contact us for a free and non-binding assessment of your tax case. In each case, we assess whether there is a prospect that a complaint could lead to full or partial abstention. If we consider that there is no prospect of adjudication, we recommend that the case is not continued.

At the non-binding meeting, as a starting point, we make a qualified assessment of the possibility of appealing and winning the case. We lay out the pros and cons, review the economics of the case and explain the rules on public cost reimbursement.

Cost reimbursement

If the complaint is largely met, the public sector will cover all costs of professional advice. In general, if full support is not achieved, partial recovery of costs can be obtained

We are involved throughout the process

The tax authorities have extensive resources at their disposal, which are actively used in tax matters. If you do not have specialist knowledge in the field, it can be difficult to penetrate with your arguments. We know the laws and practices — and can identify weaknesses in case management. Therefore, it can be crucial to appeal against incorrect decisions.
