Tax Attorneys in Barcelona

Tax due diligence before selling a Barcelona business

When a founder in Barcelona sells a company, a buyer may ask about shareholder loans, historic funding and payments across the group. LEXPERT helps sellers prepare a tax evidence file before questions begin to delay negotiations.

Map the transactions a buyer will ask about

A list of filings rarely explains a founder loan or a charge to an overseas affiliate. Start with the accounts, identify related-party balances and trace significant movements to signed agreements, approvals and payments. Note outstanding items that will be settled at completion.

Define what the disclosure actually covers

Match each buyer question to the company and period in scope. Where a historic reorganisation or transfer changed ownership, provide the dated records. If an item remains unresolved, describe what is known and which evidence is still being obtained.

Frequently asked questions

Should a shareholder loan be included if it will be repaid?

Include the agreement, balance and planned repayment mechanics. The buyer may need to understand both the historical entries and how the balance will be cleared.

How should a founder prepare for the first diligence call?

Bring the group chart, latest accounts, transaction timetable and initial buyer request list. Flag the issues already being negotiated in the sale agreement.
