Transfer pricing: Is global tax reporting on the horizon?

Description

Abstract: If international governments have their way, multinational corporations will soon be required to provide tax information to all of the jurisdictions in which they operate on a single report. Recently, the OECD and the G20 countries issued their proposed Guidance on Transfer Pricing Documentation and Country-by-Country Reporting, part of an effort to constrain global tax avoidance. This article explains what specifically would be required of companies that operate in two or more countries.
