About

Quaynote is delighted to return with Understanding Superyacht & Business Jet Tax, the one-day international event to be held in Barcelona, Spain on Tuesday, 15th October, 2024.

The conference seeks to demystify complex rules, ownership structures, VAT – and much more - across multiple jurisdictions.

Targeting charter & sales brokers, charterers, tax advisors, corporate service providers, lawyers, family offices and policy-makers,  Understanding Superyacht & Business Jet Tax is produced by Quaynote Communications, event management, PR and marketing specialists in the yacht and private jet industries for 19 years.

Our speakers will shed light on some of the thorniest tax issues that anyone involved in owning, chartering, operating or managing a superyacht or business jet needs to grapple with.
