Danish tax

Tax law is the core competency at PrivatRevision. We are primarily specialists in Danish and international taxation for individuals with Danish tax interests.

Our starting point is the taxation of you as an individual – and how to put you in the best possible position. Typically, we focus on three central criterias for determining the optimal outcome for you: It must be compliant – preferably with a clear legal basis and/or confirmation. It should result in you paying a reasonable – that is, the lowest possible – amount of tax. And it must be practical – meaning it can be implemented, lived with, and ideally offers some flexibility.

We offer highly specialized advice in several areas of Danish personal taxation. Many of our specialties deal with issues commonly faced by high-income individuals, the self-employed, and those with special or international income structures. Danish and international salaries, fees, consulting income, the business taxation scheme, employee shares or stock-based compensation, bonus programs, and earn-outs are part of our daily work. As a client, you gain access to a trusted advisor who deals with these issues daily and possesses specialized knowledge and experience.

Another key area of our work involves helping individuals navigate financial and tax-related milestones – particularly capital gains. This may include gains from real property, the sale of significant shareholdings, the disposal of a business, or other substantial gains. At PrivatRevision, we have in-depth expertise in optimizing the taxation of capital gains, deferring or realizing taxes, shifting income recipients, and more.

If you are self-employed, there is often an additional layer of tax regulation to consider. This may involve the business taxation scheme, accounting requirements, and decisions about whether parts or all of the business should be structured within a limited liability company (ApS). We provide comprehensive guidance on the tax implications and opportunities, always with the aim of optimizing your position.

Lastly, a major part of our work focuses on inheritance planning and optimization – both during life and in estate administration. For individuals with wealth in the later stages of life, it is often desirable to pass on as much as possible to heirs. Optimization strategies around estate tax and inheritance duties can make a significant difference. Our assistance is often offered in affordable packages, allowing you to choose the services you need. This ensures that as much as possible can be passed on.

We offer services ranging from simple annual tax assessments to more complex tax matters. Our expertise in specialized tax advisory services means we frequently handle compelling cases, often pushing boundaries or addressing novel situations. In some instances, significant financial stakes are involved. We often recommend securing tax-related decisions with binding rulings. In other cases, when a decision has been made, competent assistance may be needed to file an appeal.
