How TRA Helps Your Business Stay Ahead in a New Era of U.S. Tax Policy

🇺🇸 A New Chapter in U.S. Tax Policy

In a bold and strategic move, the U.S. administration has proposed a 20% "retribution tax" - nicknamed the “revenge tax” - on foreign companies based in countries that unfairly target American businesses with digital services taxes. This policy, backed by both fairness and national interest, aims to defend U.S. innovation, entrepreneurship, and economic sovereignty.

At Tax Resolution Accounting, we stand behind this approach. As a business rooted in helping others succeed through uncertainty, we know bold leadership can lead to stability and growth - when paired with smart strategy.

📊 What This Means for U.S. Businesses

If you own a company that:

  • Deals with international vendors or clients
  • Uses foreign digital platforms
  • Has investments or partnerships in countries like France, Italy, or the UK

…then this policy could impact you sooner than you think.

This isn’t just a matter of large corporations anymore. Small and mid-size businesses in Lynchburg and across the U.S. could see cost shifts, pricing adjustments, or new compliance rules stemming from international retaliation or alignment.

🧩 The Tax Landscape Is Changing - Fast

This new proposal comes at the same time as:

  • The global OECD Pillar Two minimum tax framework
  • The European Union’s ViDA VAT reforms, demanding real-time reporting
  • Growing IRS focus on digital economy taxation and AI-aided audits

It’s a complex mix - and now more than ever, your business needs a proactive financial strategy.

💼 Where TRA Comes In:  Tax Strategy, CFO Insight & Compliance Support

At TRA, we help businesses adapt, not just react.

Here’s how we support clients navigating this new policy environment:


1. Tax Planning Built for a Global Economy

We model real-world outcomes of shifting international taxes so you can make informed pricing, sourcing, and expansion decisions.


2. CFO & Advisory Services That Go Beyond the Books

Need to forecast cash flow under new tariffs or taxation models? We help you scenario-plan and identify opportunities - even in periods of uncertainty.

3. Bookkeeping That Keeps You Audit-Ready

From digital sales to foreign expenses, our bookkeeping and tax prep teams ensure your records are clear, compliant, and actionable.


📍 Local Insight, National Strategy

While these policies are global in scope, they hit close to home in places like Lynchburg, where many small businesses depend on digital tools, global suppliers, or e-commerce platforms. That’s why our approach blends national insight with local understanding - so your strategy fits your world, not just the headlines.

✅ What to Do Next

This policy is a reminder that change is always coming - but with the right team beside you, you can turn change into momentum.
