Product Information

Lifestyle assets can create lifestyle problems—especially at tax time. If your clients own flashy vehicles, holiday homes, or business-use “toys,” they could be heading for a tax recoupment shock. This webinar breaks down Namibia’s rules on capital allowances, scrapping deductions, and recoupments in plain terms, with real examples you can use. We’ll also show you how to help clients structure asset ownership to stay compliant and reduce risk. Whether you’re drafting AFS or advising on asset purchases, this session gives you the tools to protect your clients—and your reputation.
