Our International approach
The UK is a leading global economy and remains a key strategic market for businesses considering an international expansion. With an attractive taxation and an overall regulatory environment conducive to starting and operating locally, the UK ranks as one of the easiest countries to do business in according to the World Bank.
At Menzies, we recognise the importance of partnering with a firm that understands global businesses and provides proactive and timely support, combined with cross border know-how. This sets us apart from other firms that may be more suited to solely assisting UK businesses.
We service a wide variety of sectors and consider ourselves a partner on your journey with the aim to make your experience of setting up and doing business in the UK as simple and tax efficient as possible.
Our international country desks are headed by fluent speakers covering several languages and with an understanding of the local cultures and taxes, to ensure they are perfectly placed to support you and your business.
