Deezer

We have been advising Deezer on the contract that it will sign with Bitel in Peru as an intermediary in the placement of products in our country. This client came to see exclusively tax issues, later expanding his demand for legal services in our Firm. The tax issue, including the review of the contracts with Bitel, is essential in conducting your business in Peru. The relevant issues analyzed in this case are related to the application of tax withholdings, the possibility of establishing a Permanent Establishment, clauses of tax indefiniteness, among other highly complex issues. Deezer is a streaming platform with a wide music catalog. It has 16 million users, is available in 16 languages, it has a Free and Premium version without advertising and a HiFi version.
