  • Experience

    • Advised Amadeus Peru in connection with different alternatives to recover VAT included in export operations exempted from that tax, as well as to request the refund of the balance in favour of exporter, taking into account that some of the analysed VAT periods have been exhausted due to the statute of limitations period and others are opened as a consequence of a tax procedure currently discussed before the Peruvian Judicial Authority .
    • Supported AJEGROUP with an institutional query to Peruvian Tax Administration (SUNAT) related to the meaning of the activities of transformation or processing of native and/or alternative products within the Law for the Promotion of Investment in the Amazon and its Regulations, in specific, the concept of extraction, packaging and commercialization of fruit pulp in the Amazon, which would confirm our legal opinion already furnished to the client.
    • Provided legal tax advise to the Government of Peru (Ministry of Transport and Communications), related to the Government to Government Agreement (G2G) that was entered into between the Peruvian and Korean Governments, to pursuant which the Korean Government will carry out the new Cuzco International Airport Project (Aeropuerto de Chincheros) in Peru. Our tax team's involvement was crucial to the deal, as it pointed out the tax consequences derived from this first ever implementation of a deal of this nature in Peru, including the potential triggering of a Permanent Establishment of the Korean JV and additional domestic Income Tax and VAT implications, which were not necessarily identified by the Korean Government (counterparty) and its legal and tax counsel.
