What our Clients Say
Kiwis with US-sourced income and Yankees resident or working in New Zealand have a lot in common: dual taxation. The two countries’ taxation systems are quite dissimilar and that which is taxable in one jurisdiction may or not be in the other – to say nothing of foreign bank reporting requirements. Anyone who has faced these issues knows that working with and through them successfully is not for the faint-hearted. Happily, this is the space in which NZ-US Tax Specialists thrives. Their personal service is unmatched in my New Zealand experience, and their knowledge, far-sightedness, and thoroughly professional approach to clients’ needs give me cause to recommend them unreservedly.

We offer three major categories of tax accounting and advisory services. All delivered by fully qualified, experienced in-house professionals:
- New Zealand tax return preparation and filing
- US tax return preparation and filing
- International taxation advice
Clients who use both our NZ and US tax services benefit from our holistic approach to tax law compliance. However, we can tailor our service offering to meet your needs, attending to all your requirements personally since we never outsource.
Our strategies will reduce or limit the impact of taxes on your income, assets and investments while remaining fully compliant with tax law and financial regulations.
