• Compliance Coordination: Monitor applicable deadlines and help clients fulfil their recurring taxation responsibilities within the required timeframes.
• Legislative Awareness: Follow changes affecting taxation in Malta and overseas, assessing how new rules or interpretations could influence client circumstances.
• Knowledge Development: Help expand the department’s internal technical materials, guidance notes and reference resources.
