SHEMESH CPA

Can I work with an Israeli accountant remotely?

Yes. Most work with an Israeli accountant is done digitally today: scanned documents, online invoicing systems, electronic powers of attorney and signatures, online filing and video meetings. That makes it practical for new immigrants, residents outside Tel Aviv and business owners abroad with Israeli activity. What makes it work is one agreed channel for documents and a regular schedule.

What can be done remotely

Almost everything. Documents arrive as scans or straight from your invoicing system, reports to the Israeli authorities are filed online, powers of attorney are signed electronically, and meetings happen by video or phone. Annual reports and year-end reviews can be completed without anyone traveling.

Who it suits

New immigrants who are still settling in, people who live outside the city where their accountant is based, and foreign business owners with an Israeli company or branch. What matters is that the firm knows your type of business and can work in the language you prefer.

What makes it work

When to meet anyway

A face-to-face meeting can be useful at the start, before a big decision such as incorporating, or when you would rather go through documents together. We arrange these meetings by appointment.

Can I sign Israeli tax authority forms without coming in?

Yes. Powers of attorney and many other documents can now be signed electronically, and reports are filed online.

Will everything be in English?

The working relationship can be in English. Official filings are made in the formats the Israeli authorities require, and we explain them in English.

Is remote service different in scope?

No. You get the same reports, filings and advice - you just don't have to travel.
