About MC Advisory (Matteo Colafrancesco Tax and Legal Advisor)

Established in Lugano in 2016, this independent practice is led by a Ticino-registered fiduciary accountant who is also qualified as a lawyer in Italy and belongs to the STEP professional body. It concentrates on tax advice, asset structuring and cross-border operations for individuals, companies and family groups, and it cooperates with a United Kingdom chartered accountancy network to strengthen the international side. Foreign companies active in Swiss VAT can appoint the firm as tax representative, with registration, periodic returns and refund procedures handled for them, and a separate service accompanies professionals and families relocating to Switzerland. Additional work includes accounting support for start-ups and established businesses, tax returns, corporate and tax due diligence, internal control audits, customs and VAT consulting, and expert opinions in tax and social security disputes. Case studies describe non-resident clients, and the website is written in Italian.
