For entrepreneurs, investors, and freelancers who need an advisor who not only knows the numbers but also understands the underlying structure.
The close integration with other disciplines of TABAK Consulting – Holdings, Real Estate, IT – makes the difference: tax optimization approaches do not arise in silos, but in the interplay of all relevant fields. Short paths. Clear responsibilities. Reliable results.

National and EU-wide VAT compliance, OSS registration, input tax refund, and cross-border service relationships. Particularly relevant for real estate and holding structures with VAT options.

A holding structure without tax optimization is like a sports car with winter tires: the technology is right, but the potential remains untapped. TABAK combines both from a single source.
Distributions from subsidiaries to the holding are 95% exempt from corporate and trade tax. With a profit of €300,000: only about €1,500 instead of up to €30,000 in tax burden.
Profits from the sale of shares held by a holding are also 95% tax-free. Ideal for exit scenarios and portfolio adjustments.
Contribution of business assets at book values according to §§ 20, 21 UmwStG – without immediate tax burden. Blocking period calculation and succession planning included.
For partnerships: Retained earnings are taxed at only 28.25% (§ 34a EStG) – instead of the personal top tax rate of 45%.
Consolidated profit and loss offsetting within the corporate group – TABAK designs group structures that are audit-proof and compliant with documentation requirements.
Trade tax reductions (§ 9 GewStG) for real estate income and capital gains – significantly reduces the effective tax burden at the holding level.

Every structural decision — founding a company, selling shares, purchasing real estate — has tax implications, which only become visible after 18 to 36 months. We calculate in advance what will happen later.
A tax audit costs unfiltered between €15,000 and €80,000 in back payments plus interest. With clean documentation and prepared answers, the audit is a routine obligation — not the nightmare it is for others.
Even if you do not have a holding: § 6 UmwStG opens up tax-neutral restructurings. Retrospective contribution up to 8 months into the tax year — if you know it and act in time.
Transfer pricing, permanent establishment issues, application of double taxation agreements. Those who deal with the family doctor here pay more. We coordinate with international partner law firms in over 20 countries — without changing clients.
