Louise D’hondt
Personal Tax Consultant
Louise is personal tax consultant. Within the tax team, she assists individuals and self-employed people with questions about their personal tax and non-resident tax. This both on a national and international level.
Clients come to our team for advice on their personal income tax returns, non-resident tax returns or the tax implications of international employment. This also includes applying for the special expat tax status and simulations on car taxation.
In my job, every day I am dealing with different aspects of taxation and with many different clients such as private individuals, the self-employed, SMEs or company managers. Because tax legislation evolves regularly, keeping up to date is also an important aspect of our job.
I enjoy taking on challenging cases to delve into and look for a practical solution. Together with the client, we examine the tax situation and look for possible optimizations. In this way, we always deliver tailor-made solutions.
This year I passed my entrance exam for the ITAA.
I value family and friends and enjoy making time for them. I enjoy cooking and organizing dinner parties.
