Implementing Pillar One & Pillar Two

Implementing Pillar One & Pillar Two

Building upon work conducted for several years on how to adapt the international tax rules to an increasingly digitalised economy, the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework proposes a two-pillar overhaul of the existing system as from 2023/2024. While the main policy features are agreed, detailed model rules and draft multilateral conventions are due to be released over 2022.

Tax directors and their teams can already model the impact, prepare for the additional tax compliance burden and assess opportunities for manageable restructurings to mitigate the increased complexity.

How we can help

With our integrated tax & legal expertise and comprehensive transfer pricing knowledge we advise businesses in our main service areas Documentation, Planning & Strategy and Dispute Resolution.

Doc­u­men­ta­tion

Often we hear that tax departments face issues in dealing with new transfer pricing documentation requirements such as Master File, Local File and Country-by-Country Reporting obligations. Our transfer pricing specialists help you to assess your documentation against stringent new requirements in our home markets (Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and Luxembourg). These experiences are used by our clients to roll out solid documentation standards in other jurisdictions. Our approach allows us to have a global impact with our local reach.

Plan­ning & Strat­e­gy

Feedback from clients shows that new regulatory developments force businesses to review their legal structures. We help your tax department in formulating sustainable transfer pricing strategies that are in line with your business whilst maintaining tax efficiency. Clients ask our advice on transfer pricing policies, building and converting business models and profit allocations into permanent establishments.

Dis­pute Res­o­lu­tion

Clients experience the process of avoiding double taxation as very lengthy and complicated. With our integrated tax & transfer pricing practice, we are able to help you accelerate procedures and prevent double taxation. We also regularly assist our clients with audits and resolve (international) transfer pricing disputes both at an administrative and court level.
