A leading Mexican professional-services firm

Salles Sainz Grant Thornton describes itself as a Mexican firm of public accountants and consultants distinguished by its leadership in delivering personalised professional services to private and public enterprises throughout Mexico. As the Mexican member of the international Grant Thornton network, the firm combines local depth with the reach and standards of a global organisation, allowing it to serve both domestic businesses and companies with cross-border interests.

The firm maintains a broad national footprint, with its principal presence in Mexico City complemented by offices in cities including Querétaro, Puerto Vallarta, Monterrey, Guadalajara, Ciudad Juárez, Tijuana, Puebla, Aguascalientes and León. This wide coverage enables the firm to support clients across Mexico's main economic centres, from the capital to the industrial north and the country's major regional markets.

Tax advisory in a complex environment

Tax is central to the work for which the firm has been recognised, and it is the field in which Santos Emilio Briz Pintos practises as a partner in Mexico City. The firm's services span tax consultation and advisory, transfer pricing, and foreign trade and customs, alongside its audit and broader business-advisory work. Mexican taxation is a detailed and demanding area, shaped by domestic law, the country's network of international tax treaties, and the practical requirements of compliance and reporting. Businesses operating in or with Mexico need advisers who can help them meet their obligations while structuring their affairs efficiently and managing risk.

The firm's tax and related offerings include:

• Tax consultation and advisory services
• Transfer pricing
• Foreign trade and customs
• Audit and assurance, including tax opinions and IFRS work
• Business advisory and business-process solutions

Delivering tax advice within a full-service firm has a clear advantage: tax questions rarely stand alone, and the ability to combine tax expertise with audit, transfer-pricing and advisory capability allows the firm to give clients a joined-up view of their financial and regulatory position. For companies with international operations, the firm's membership of the Grant Thornton network adds valuable cross-border reach.
