Services
Going global! It’s a great opportunity and a lot of work! Companies are opening operations in new countries to support their global clients on a local basis, to seek new streams of revenue or to reduce their production costs.
Going global is a complicated proposition. Not only do you have to figure out how to market your products, you have to determine how to operate in a new environment. You now have to understand how to manage multiple currencies, numerous sets of changing tax laws, additional compliance and regulatory requirements as well as complicated employer/employee legal relationships. And, these issues do not exist in a static environment-they are all interrelated and are in a constant state of change. The result is a rapidly changing environment in which decisions about your tax structure will impact your legal structure and decisions about managing employees will have both tax and legal consequences. Launching into this
environment without specialized knowledge is costly to your finances and painful for your customers and your employees.
That’s where Birchtree Global can help. Our business model is simple. We start with a talented team of CPAs, lawyers, tax specialists, immigration and HR experts in the U.S. that have worked together for years, helping hundreds of companies from start up to mid size open new global operations. Then we leverage our managed network of colleagues around the world to get your firm established quickly and efficiently while simultaneously helping you manage the transition risks. We focus on the back office work so you can focus on building your business.
If you look inside our “Company in a Box” integrated start up services you will find the following areas of expertise:
Global Financial, Accounting and Tax Services
From a financial, tax and accounting perspective, going global is more than just setting up a new set of books. Your financial model will change, you’ll be operating in a new regulatory environment, you may have different statutory reporting requirements and tax planning becomes crucial. The impact of these dynamic and complex factors, as well as the effect of cultural, economic and technological issues, cause the tax planning, financial reporting and compliance issues for the newly global business to become more complicated.
We understand not just the requirements for the U.S. regulators, but also the tax, accounting and statutory reporting requirements in more than 70 other countries. With that knowledge we help you go global by:
These are just some of the areas where we can help you create a strong financial and accounting backbone for your global operations.
Global Legal and Immigration Advice

Setting up a global business requires a whole new set of legal skills to address these and other issues.

Our services help you to identify and manage the key issues in staffing, compensation, performance management, benefits, and expatriate management while simultaneously identifying the legal and financial ramifications of these decisions. This is not just good human resource decision making, it is good company management.
