In the context of corporate transactions, target companies are systematically assessed. The instrument of due diligence serves this purpose. One facet of this due diligence is a review of the tax circumstances in the company you are interested in. The systematic assessment of these tax aspects is the subject of tax due diligence, for which you will find a structured checklist here.
The practical checklist addresses tax-related financial aspects with 13 questions.
As a prospective buyer, you can write your findings after each item, use relevant sources of information, refer to attachments, name supporting documents, and write your comments. This creates a record of your audit during the tax due diligence process. Following your inspection, having the seller sign for their confirmation will provide you with a valuable basis for the warranties to be defined in the purchase agreement.
This checklist is also valuable for sellers to carefully prepare for tax due diligence. Carefully review the items on this checklist and consider how you can find answers to them, or what you should be grinding out in your business from a tax perspective before you sell.
In order to support corporate transactions across countries, this checklist is available in German, English and Spanish.
