The world has shrunk, and global opportunities beckon. Your business is ready to export goods or services internationally, capitalising on markets beyond New Zealand's borders. The timing feels right, demand exists, and your products have proven success domestically.
Then reality hits: importing regulations, indirect taxes, direct taxes, residency requirements, monetary controls—the regulatory complexity becomes a nightmare. And that's before considering how international operations will be accounted for back home in New Zealand.
Ready to expand globally without getting lost in international regulatory complexity? Contact UHY Haines Norton today to discuss how our global network transforms overseas expansion from overwhelming challenge into strategic opportunity.
You simply want to sell products profitably, but navigating international business requirements seems impossible without professional guidance.

Our comprehensive international business support
Strategic Market Entry Coordination
Once we understand your intended destinations and planned activities, we engage appropriate UHY member firms to coordinate your entry into new countries with local expertise and regulatory knowledge.
Optimal Positioning and Structure Assessment
We determine the most advantageous positions in target countries, then assess whether changes or steps are required in New Zealand to maximise benefits across both jurisdictions.
Documentation Compliance Management
We work with your team to ensure documentation from your firm to overseas customers complies with local rules and regulations, preventing costly compliance failures.
Comprehensive Tax Compliance
Utilising our Transfer Pricing and International Tax services, we ensure full compliance across all relevant tax jurisdictions and regulatory requirements.
Integrated New Zealand Reporting
During annual income tax return preparation, we ensure proper disclosure of overseas transactions whilst coordinating with international operations for comprehensive compliance.
Ongoing International Coordination
We maintain regular contact with UHY International counterparts to stay informed about issues impacting current structures and emerging regulatory changes.
Strategic international business benefits
Local Expertise Prevents Costly Mistakes
Overseas business mistakes can be extremely expensive for foreign companies. Locally based advisers ensure you receive appropriate guidance that prevents costly errors and compliance failures.
Confident Service Quality Through Network Connections
The UHY International network provides overseas service quality equivalent to local client treatment, backed by mutual professional connections and shared service standards.
Enhanced New Zealand Tax Return Preparation
Access to information from overseas counterparts provides advantages during New Zealand tax return preparation, ensuring comprehensive and accurate reporting.
Proactive Compliance and Preparation
Before return preparation begins, we establish proper mechanics, including Transfer Pricing compliance where applicable, ensuring you're prepared, ready, and fully compliant across all jurisdictions.
Beyond market entry: Sustainable international success
International business success requires more than initial market entry—it demands ongoing compliance, strategic coordination, and adaptive management that responds to changing regulations across multiple jurisdictions.
Our integrated approach ensures international expansion enhances rather than complicates your overall business operations whilst maintaining full compliance with all relevant regulatory requirements.
