More informationMore information

The tax team at Moreno Baldivieso Estudio De Abogados has an intricate knowledge of the Bolivian tax system, offering advice on tax regulations and complex administrative processes. The firm has experience handling a variety of tax-related matters, including international tax planning and structuring, tax audits, appeals and disputes. The firm has noted a recent increase in its tax-related advice to the construction sector, and related M&A transactions, while it continues to advise multinational businesses operating in Bolivia on a range of cross-border tax, legal and operational issues. The team is led by three lawyers: tax specialist Delfor Zapata, senior tax counsel Rodrigo Burgos, and associate Moises Blanco ; the latter pair can both draw on former experience working at the tax authority. Since publication, the team has been further strengthened with the hire of Luis Andrés Valda, formerly of Criales & Urcullo, as associate practice director - effective as of May 2024.
