Puente Sur, a member of the Praxity Alliance, is a full-service tax and accounting firm with more than 140 staff members serving 150 multinational enterprises investing or operating in Chile through more than 300 legal entities.

Puente Sur is committed to providing a wide array of tax-related services such as M&A structuring, transfer pricing planning, tax compliance, and VAT recovery procedures.

The firm is unique in having an extensive media presence, thus contributing to the ongoing debate concerning tax matters in Latin America and Chile, and enabling businesses to express their views in the public arena. For that purpose, Puente Sur has contributed actively to media companies such as Bloomberg, International VAT Monitor, Tax Notes, and local outlets including Diario Financiero, La Tercera, and EMOL.

Puente Sur’s core practices ensure that organizations remain tax compliant (e.g., by having the proper transfer pricing support documentation), while representing their interests before local authorities and business partners.

Some of the most crucial work has dealt with representing companies before the IRS to enhance tax transparency of applicable digital business models, addressing transfer pricing audits, and managing VAT recovery processes.

On the transactional side, Puente Sur has supported M&A projects in sectors such as telecommunications and maritime ports.
