At the end of January 2015 the French and German member firms of the Tax Representative Alliance (TRA), LRF and WW+KN, did an interchange of ideas in Paris. Both offices discussed the development of the cross-border cooperation and how to create new services for both clients. “It is one of the strength of TRA that we are able to create new client services over borders”, LRF partner Corinne Maure said.

As LRF partner Corinne Maure is also the TRA President and WW+KN partner Matthias Winkler is the Vice President of TRA also some topics for the upcoming TRA annual meeting in Madrid in March were discussed. “We have some plans how the TRA members can offer cross-border services in their countries by using the association”, Matthias Winkler explained.
The Tax Representative Alliance (TRA) is an association of independent VAT specialists from several countries. They are accountants, lawyers or tax advisors, who handle the VAT affairs of foreign companies and groups as tax representatives in their states.
