Project Support Services in Africa:

• Vehicle & Office Procurement: We arrange vehicle purchases or rentals, handling paperwork and insurance. We also secure shared or private offices with internet and amenities, managing lease agreements and payments.
• Treasury Management & Expense Management in Africa: Our team manages expenses (treasury management) across 46 African countries and with access to over 30 African currencies, mitigating currency risk and settling invoices locally. We use strict approval processes for all payouts. We also offer prepaid expense cards for individuals or teams, providing easy access to funds and detailed expense reports.

Insurance & Pension Solutions in Africa:

• Medical, Life & Accident Insurance: We partner with international and local insurance companies to provide tailored medical, life, and accident insurance solutions for your staff in Africa. We ensure comprehensive coverage, especially important when operating in diverse African countries.
• Pension Saving Plans: We offer additional USD-denominated pension saving plans through a licensed third-party partner (FSC of Mauritius), providing your employees with long-term financial security.

African Work Permits & Immigration Support:

• Work Permits & Visa Support: We assist with work permit applications, navigating the complexities of African immigration processes. Our local teams manage paperwork and liaise with authorities. While we cannot guarantee approvals (as local authorities have final say), we ensure all documentation is correctly submitted. We hold the work permit under our in-country entity, employing the expatriate locally and managing all HR, payroll, tax, and compliance requirements.

Independent Contractor Outsourcing in Africa:

• Independent Contractor Management: We manage contracts and payments for independent contractors/consultants, ensuring clear separation of responsibilities and compliance with local tax regulations. We facilitate payments in any country or currency, requiring timesheets and invoices for services rendered. We can also facilitate tax payments for contractors who do not meet the criteria to be considered a tax resident.

Africa Tax Advisory Services:

• Tax Advisory & Consulting: Through our tax advisory partners, we connect you with international tax experts experienced in various African industries (Oil & Gas, Mining, Manufacturing, FMCG, Renewable Energy, Financial Sector, and Pharmaceutical Healthcare). Our experts cover all tax disciplines, including business tax, international tax, transactional tax, and general tax issues.
