The Multilateral Convention to Implement Tax Treaty Related Measures to Prevent Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (MLI) provides an innovative approach to enable countries to swiftly modify their bilateral tax treaties in order to implement measures developed in the course of the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Project. MLI, the first successfully concluded multilateral tax treaty, provides jurisdictions with the tools they need to ensure that profits are taxed where economic activities generating the profits are performed, while at the same time giving businesses greater certainty. MLI Made Easy makes it easier to get a complete grasp of this swift but complex modification process of tax treaties. This first and only self-contained book offers an unmatched article-by-article discussion of the MLI with an abundance of practical examples, diagrams, and flowcharts to make the information easier to understand and apply. Focusing on measures to combat tax evasion and abuse of tax treaties arising due to artificial avoidance of a permanent establishment status, hybrid mismatch arrangements, and other aspects of taxation, the book includes an in-depth discussion of the following and more: how specific gaps in existing bilateral tax treaties are addressed by the MLI; positions taken by selected jurisdictions and their impact on treaties; compatibility clauses, notification clauses, opting-in mechanisms, alternative provisions, and reservations; experiences in the course of implementation of the MLI; misconceptions and lingering doubts in respect of various substantive and procedural provisions of the MLI; interaction between the principal purpose test and simplified limitation on benefits; improving dispute resolution; and meaning of the phrases ‘on or after’, ‘other taxes’, and interpretational issues in entry into effect provisions. Adopted by a majority of jurisdictions worldwide, MLI preserves the tax sovereignty of its Parties and has been successful in overcoming barriers to the conclusion of a worldwide multilateral tax treaty. Because this easy-to-use book immensely facilitates understanding and application of the treaty measures developed in the course of the BEPS Project, it will be of immeasurable use to practitioners and other professionals engaging in international taxation, as well as to taxation authorities and interested academics in any part of the world.

Worldwide implementation of the OECD’s Global Anti-Base Erosion Rules (GloBE Rules), published in December 2021, promises to strike a powerful blow at the tax avoidance rampantly indulged in by many multinational corporations since global minimum tax rate of 15% in all countries is expected to curb shifting of profits from higher tax jurisdiction to lower tax jurisdiction or tax havens. As Inclusive Framework (IF) Member jurisdictions prepare to implement legislation, the tax law community worldwide can turn to this extraordinarily practical, self-contained book for a complete understanding of the background and attributes of the Rules. The book includes such features as the following: text of each of the Rules’ ten chapters (including all forty-nine articles) along with both summary and detailed description; explanations of the Commentary and Illustrative Examples released by the OECD in March 2022; numerous flowcharts, tables, boxes, illustrations, and figures; elaborate technical discussions amidst specific policy considerations; analysis of IF Member jurisdictions regarding key parameters with suitable recommendations; ‘GloBE Rules at a Glance’ checklist encapsulating the features and application of the Rules in the form of FAQs; and implementation processes under way in ten representative jurisdictions. The various publications and releases by the OECD up to 31 May 2022 are considered and duly explained. In the struggle to curb harmful tax competition and aggressive tax planning, it is possible that the GloBE Rules will at last succeed in creating a level playing field in the realm of taxation. And given that OECD guidance and tax expert analysis may not suffice to fully comprehend the complexity of the Rules, this book will prove of enormous value among a wide array of stakeholders, including taxation authorities, tax advisors and lawyers, and academics. Also, multinational enterprises will get enough information to derive maximum benefits in terms of their preparedness, readiness, and responses to implementation of the Rules.

Advance pricing agreements or arrangements (APAs) are designed as a dispute prevention mechanism for transfer pricing related issues and provide certainty to taxpayers on taxation of cross-border transactions. Since the APA procedure was introduced by tax authorities in the late 1980s, it has gradually taken hold worldwide and evolved along several dimensions with important characteristics. This book, the first exclusively dedicated to the global APA regime, provides a comprehensive, in-depth discussion of the APA concepts and procedures in twenty-five jurisdictions across Europe, Asia, Asia Pacific, North America, South America and Africa, noting the particular genesis, features, and progress made under each programme. The analysis covers such elements as the following: the types of APAs and their characteristics; the main steps involved in an APA process; key advantages of APA programme and comparative study of the APA as a preferred dispute prevention mechanism over other dispute resolution mechanisms; key issues observed and in practice by various APA authorities worldwide inter alia involving, cost base of captive entities, resolution of transfer pricing issues involving intangibles, location savings, joint site visits, attribution of profits to PEs, APAs for small businesses, abbreviated procedure for renewal of APAs, significance of economic nexus prior to the grant of APAs and other relevant issues; exchange of APA rulings equip tax authorities to quickly identify risk areas so as to curb Base Erosion and Profits Shifting (BEPS), which augurs well for the APA programme and is another milestone in its evolution process; APAs provide jurisdictions with an excellent platform to fostering a non-adversarial tax regime. The author includes an extended case study of India’s APA programme, highlighting some of its conspicuous elements with equal focus on certain special characteristics of APAs in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Ireland, Korea, The Netherlands, Poland, UK and the United States. Factors influencing speedier processing and suggestions on further improvement of APA programmes are also included. Numerous tables and figures illustrate all aspects associated with APAs. With more economies opening up and the worldwide implementation of the OECD/G20 BEPS Action Reports in an endeavour to combat BEPS, access and recourse to APAs is sure to grow. This invaluable book will enable tax administrations to learn from each other’s experiences and help to prevent costly and time-consuming transfer pricing audits and litigation for multinational enterprises. The book will be welcomed by revenue officials, professionals, and advisors concerned with international taxation, as well as by tax law academics.
