What is Taxation Law?
Taxation Law refers to the legal framework governing the assessment, collection, and management of taxes imposed by governments on individuals, businesses, and other entities. It encompasses direct taxes, such as income and corporate taxes, and indirect taxes, like VAT and customs duties.
In the Republic of Cameroon, taxation is regulated under:
- The General Tax Code of Cameroon, which outlines tax obligations for individuals and businesses.
- The OHADA Uniform Act, which provides guidelines on business taxation across member states.
- The CEMAC Customs Code, which governs tax policies on imports and exports.
- International Double Taxation Treaties, which prevent taxation on the same income in multiple jurisdictions.
Our firm offers comprehensive legal assistance, ensuring compliance with these regulations while minimizing tax burdens through strategic planning.
