Preparing for BEPS 2.0

As you’ve likely heard, there have been significant changes to the global tax and transfer pricing landscape in the past few years. On July 1st, 2021, 130 countries agreed to the global minimum tax for corporations in a historic OECD deal. The agreement set forth the key terms of a “two pillar” approach, under which a minimum 15% global corporate tax rate will be set.

This agreement will also empower governments to tax multinational companies in the countries where their goods or services are sold, regardless of whether the company has a physical presence there or not, with the goal of eliminating tax havens. The overall aim of the two-pillar package is to bolster certainty and the stability of the international tax system. It is estimated that these changes will generate over 150 billion USD in additional global tax revenues annually.

Adoption for BEPS 2.0 is anticipated for 2023, although there is still uncertainty around the specific date. As such, we are currently waiting on more information regarding how the countries will draft and enact Pillar Two legislation that will introduce an “income Inclusion Rule” and provide details of the associated compliance requirements.

In the meantime, companies should start planning now to combat potential challenges that BEPS 2.0, and in particular, Pillar 2 may soon introduce. One of the best ways to do this is by having the right tax provisioning and reporting tools in place.

Here’s how Longview can help.
