Advisory Access

Retainer clients receive priority access to their CaribTax advisor for questions, planning queries, and life events that affect their tax position.

  • Email and call advisory access
  • Life event impact assessment
  • Mid-year planning review
  • Year-end strategy session

Ongoing compliance questions

Sint Maarten tax law requires active annual filings even for simple situations. Penshonado status is not permanent — it must be renewed each year through specific declarations. Missing a filing or renewal deadline can result in automatic penalties or, worse, loss of Penshonado status, which requires a full re-application to restore. Our retainer ensures nothing is ever missed.
Yes. Our Full Portfolio retainer includes US FBAR and FATCA coordination alongside your Sint Maarten filings. For clients on the Essential or Professional plans, US compliance coordination can be added as a supplement. We coordinate with our vetted US CPA network to ensure both sides of your filing are handled by specialists.
Life events — new income sources, property purchases, business structure changes, travel pattern changes — can all affect your tax position. Retainer clients have advisory access to bring these to our attention as they arise, not after the tax year has closed. We assess the impact and advise proactively.
Retainer fees are billed annually at the start of each engagement year. Payment is accepted by bank transfer (ANG, USD, or EUR). For Full Portfolio clients, fee structure is discussed and agreed at the start of each year based on entity count, complexity, and scope.
