In 2020, our team assisted a Chinese international e-commerce company dealing with beauty products to successfully collaborate with Deloitte LLP in the US and Canada to completely restructure the company to achieve tax optimization.\u00a0<\/p>

In 2020, through the Florida Department of Revenue’s Voluntary Disclosure Agreement (VDA), our organization collaborated with a soon-to-be public Chinese international e-commerce company to negotiate with the Department of Revenue to successfully reduce the cumulative sales tax payable over the past 3 years from US$1.6 million to US$300,000.<\/p>

In 2019, we provided professional advice and recommendations to a well-known e-commerce company in response to an audit and appeal by the Massachusetts Department of State Taxation, successfully reducing tax penalties by over $60,000.<\/p>

In 2017, we successfully applied for exemptions from all sales and use tax and corporate income tax debts and penalties for several top Amazon sellers through the Voluntary Disclosure Agreement administered by the Multistate Tax Commission (MTC), totaling over $25 million in prior years.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
