Administrative Office – An administrative office is frequently located in a country other than that of the headquarters office, the parent company or a country of operation. The role of such an administrative office may be to co-ordinate international or regional activities, to provide particular services (such as management analysis, financial or other related services) or to perform a given function (such as marketing). A number of otherwise high tax jurisdictions (such as the United Kingdom, France, Belgium and Denmark) grant special tax treatment in order to attract the administrative offices of multinationals.
