The tax expert (HFP) supports companies and private individuals in tax matters or, if working in public administration, carries out audits of taxpayers and supervises the correct application of tax law. You are available to assist individuals and legal entities with questions on wealth and income taxation, capital and profit taxation. The field of work also includes topics such as VAT, stamp duty and, of course, tax law, so that he/she can provide taxpayers with the best possible advice.

 

Employment in public administrations, either as a tax commissioner or tax inspector, is an interesting possibility. The tax expert works for companies, among others, where he/she carries out audits, checks annual financial statements, completes tax returns and provides advice in the area of social insurance. Knowledge of business administration is a further prerequisite for working successfully in this field.
