If your company trades in or disposes of natural resources, you will be confronted with complex tax matters. Indeed, the taxation of natural resources is subject to a continually changing and ever-more complicated regulatory regime. Moreover, public interest in this sector’s tax regime is growing, making the correct tax strategy all the more necessary. Our tax advisors will gladly help you with this.
Types of natural resources
What is an accurate definition of natural resources? Meijburg & Co primarily advises and supports two sectors, namely companies involved in oil and gas, and companies active in mining. In addition, through our returns services, we arrange tax returns on a variety of taxes. More details on the two sectors and our returns services are provided below.

Assistance with tax returns
Through our returns services, we support you with your returns on a variety of taxes. A tax return is more than simply the product of a compliance obligation.
