Registered Foreign Lawyer

Brendan T. Kelly is a registered foreign lawyer of Baker McKenzie's Hong Kong office and head of the China Tax Practice. Brendan has practiced tax with an Asian focus for about 25 years, with two decades based in China. He has performed a wide range of analysis for various industries with regard to China tax implications, and specializes in advising cross-border clients on tax and legal implications of investment in China.

Brendan also has in recent years expanded into regional and global work with multinationals on major mergers and acquisitions, to develop integrated and tax-efficient supply chain structures and defend against tax audits and assessments in China and across the Asia Pacific region. While China remains very much at the core of his practice, Brendan works on a variety of multi-jurisdictional deals and matters on behalf of his clients.

Brendan's practice focuses on tax structuring and planning in China across a range of industries and cross-border M&A tax.
