What Borgen Tax does

Borgen Tax is an Amsterdam-based professional services firm founded in 2014 that provides specialized tax advisory services to internationally operating companies. The firm employs 27 people, including eight named partners, and offers a nine-service-line practice spanning Corporate & International Tax, VAT & Indirect Tax, Employment Tax & Global Mobility, Mergers & Acquisitions, Transfer Pricing, Real Estate, Tax Compliance, Investment Management, and Tax Insurance. The firm is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, public listing, or institutional investors.

The firm's central structural asset is its position as the Dutch member of Taxand Global, an international tax advisory network providing access to over 700 partners and 2,500 advisors across 50+ countries, where Borgen Tax holds a Tier-1 ranking. This network affiliation enables cross-border coordination for multinational clients without requiring the firm to build international capacity organically. Borgen Tax itself does not develop or sell software, platforms, or technology products — its offering is entirely human professional expertise delivered through partner-led engagements.

Commercially, the firm operates a pure enterprise field sales motion, with engagements initiated through direct contact with partners and relationship-driven business development. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with bespoke advisory engagements. Marketing is driven by a blog covering Dutch and EU tax developments (Pillar Two, EU Tax Simplification Package, NL VAT case law, earnings stripping), an email newsletter, a LinkedIn presence, and referrals from the Taxand network. The firm does not disclose revenue, and the only named client case study involves a large private investor with a Dutch real estate portfolio.
