Mona Vera is a tax lawyer with a particular focus on personal income tax and international tax matters for individuals, entrepreneurs, directors, athletes and artists. She has extensive experience in Belgian and international tax matters, from advisory work and implementation to tax audits and disputes.
Her practice focuses on three key areas of expertise. In each of these areas, she combines technical expertise with a pragmatic and solution-oriented approach.
International mobility: Mona assists clients who move to Belgium or relocate abroad, as well as individuals with cross-border professional activities. She advises on tax residence, the tax impact of relocation on income and assets, the application of double tax treaties and possible exit taxes.
Equity incentives and management agreements: Mona advises on stock options, warrants, RSUs and other forms of equity-based, participation-based or performance-based remuneration. She also assists clients with the drafting and negotiation of management agreements, directors’ agreements and consultancy agreements, focusing on a clear contractual position and arrangements that can withstand future disputes.
Taxation of athletes and artists: Mona assists athletes, artists, performing groups and teams in an international context. She advises, among other things, on prize money, sponsorship income, image rights, foreign withholding taxes, international tax compliance obligations and the tax aspects of contracts and commercial deals.
Mona combines tax advice with hands-on guidance in its implementation. She translates complex tax questions into clear choices, concrete steps and workable solutions, and assists clients during tax audits and disputes. Her approach is personal, accessible and discreet, and aimed at practical results that also give clients peace of mind.
