Stephen Baxter Partner
I assist my clients to make better and wiser business and investment decisions when they encounter the world of indirect taxes.
Indirect taxes are a mysterious, confusing and constantly changing field. With decades of experience in multiple taxes, I am well equipped to help clients understand where they have liabilities and also where opportunities for exemptions and credits can be taken.
My specialties and background include:
- GST planning and transaction advice for the property sector as well as land tax dispute and planning advice for developers, investors and family property portfolios.
- Implementing whole of business GST systems in Australia.
- Implementing tax systems for state government authorities.
- Establishing streamlined GST compliance systems in Australia for non-residents.
- Providing fuel tax credits advice and claims assistance for the transport, construction and Government sectors.
- Planning strategies to reduce indirect tax costs for manufacturers, importers and wholesalers.
- Payroll tax advice and planning.
My membership of the Commonwealth Board of Taxation Advisory Panel since 2008 has enabled me to influence the development of indirect taxes in Australia.
I also author the GST chapters for Wolters Kluwer Small Business Tax Concessions Guide.
