Are Tax Havens Pushing States to Worldwide Combined ReportingBrian Strahle
- States are losing approximately $40 billion annually in state income taxes due to corporate use of offshore tax havens. In response, some states like Oregon have passed laws requiring corporations to report income from affiliates in certain foreign countries in an attempt to capture this lost revenue.
- There is debate around whether a "water's edge" reporting requirement with mandatory inclusion of tax haven income meets constitutional standards. It extends the tax base beyond US corporations without allowing the full worldwide tax base to be counted.
- The Multistate Tax Commission advocates for a hybrid model of water's edge reporting that includes an obligation to report tax haven income. Their definition of a tax haven focuses on jurisdictions with nominal tax rates and lack of transparency.

This document provides an overview of international taxation concepts. It discusses how residency is a key factor in determining tax jurisdiction, as countries either tax worldwide income for residents or only income from domestic sources for non-residents. There can be conflicts when countries define residency differently, such as based on place of incorporation versus management and control, which can lead to double taxation. Treaties aim to resolve such conflicts but different countries take different approaches in their treaties. The concepts of residency, jurisdiction, and relief from double taxation are important aspects of international tax.
1) Ghana signed tax treaties with Switzerland and the Netherlands in 2008 that reduced the royalty and technical service fee taxes Ghana could collect on payments flowing out of the country from 15% to 8%, resulting in increased tax losses.
2) Tax treaties are not always necessary to prevent double taxation and empirical studies do not find they increase investment, while they always result in developing countries giving up some taxing rights to developed countries.
3) Developing country tax officials are often not well trained in international taxation and tax treaties, leading to weaker negotiating positions and treaties that more strongly reflect the positions of developed country partners.

CONFLICT OF SOURCE AND RESIDENCE PRINCIPLES OF TAXATIONksanu
This document discusses various types of conflicts that can arise in international taxation between the principles of residence and source. Residence/source conflicts occur when the same income is taxed by both the country of residence under residence principles and the country of source under source principles. Source/source conflicts happen when multiple countries claim income was sourced from their territory. Residence/residence conflicts arise when two countries consider a taxpayer resident under their domestic laws. Double tax agreements aim to resolve these conflicts through provisions regarding sole residence or source taxation, or tiebreaker rules to determine sole residency.

Andrew Ellis et al., Physica B, 385-386, (2006), 514 - 516.Duncan Gordon
This study investigated the physical aging of a blend of deuterated and hydrogenated poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). DSC showed an endothermic peak developed during aging and increased with aging time, indicating an increase in enthalpy. SANS revealed the radius of gyration decreased during aging, suggesting a change in molecular conformation. However, no difference was observed between aged and de-aged samples by SANS. The study thus showed physical aging of PET leads to changes in enthalpy and molecular conformation over time.

Indonesia transfer pricing - A response to the BEPS actionsJulia Yang
PMK 213 outlines new Indonesian transfer pricing documentation requirements following the OECD's BEPS actions. It establishes a three-tiered documentation approach including a master file, local file, and country-by-country report. Taxpayers meeting certain revenue or related-party transaction thresholds must prepare and have documentation available within four months of their year-end, submitting summaries to tax authorities. Failure to comply could result in tax risks and penalties by being deemed not to apply the arm's length principle. The changes aim to increase transparency around multinational group transfer pricing in line with international standards.
This document summarizes the following:
1) It introduces the monthly publication "International Tax News" which provides updates and analysis on international tax developments authored by PwC specialists.

Newletter Machado Associados - Taxation of Capital Gains Earned by Non-residentsNathália Fraga
The Brazilian tax authority introduced changes to the taxation of capital gains earned by non-residents on the disposal of goods and rights located in Brazil. The changes establish a progressive tax rate on capital gains, ranging from 15% for gains up to 5 million Brazilian reals to 22.5% for gains over 30 million reals. The tax is due by the last business day of the month after the gain is ascertained. If disposal occurs over multiple years, gains are aggregated and prior taxes paid are deducted. For gains earned in 2017 and beyond, the progressive rates apply, replacing the previous flat 15% rate. Resident individuals are also taxed on capital gains using progressive rates since 2017.

A competividade no mercado global e a migração para regimes territoriaisRamon Tomazela

ii) Regimes universais de tributação prejudicam a competitividade de empresas em mercados globais e desestimulam a repatriação de lucros acumulados no exterior.
iii) Países adotam a territorialidade parcial para conter perdas de arrecadação devido à concorrência

Prevention of hybrid mismatches as a justificationRamon Tomazela
This document discusses the European Union's justification for preventing hybrid mismatches as a way to tackle cross-border tax arbitrage. It begins by explaining how differences in tax rules between jurisdictions create opportunities for taxpayers to engage in tax planning strategies that exploit these differences. Specifically, hybrid mismatch arrangements can result in double deductions, deduction without inclusion, or excessive foreign tax credits. The EU has taken steps through the Parent-Subsidiary Directive and BEPS project to eliminate double non-taxation from these arrangements. The document then analyzes how hybrid mismatches can hamper the objectives of the single market by resulting in significant lost tax revenue and creating an uneven playing field for companies.

Contradictory Brazilian decisions on the Taxation of Cost-Sharing AgreementsRamon Tomazela
The Brazilian tax authority (COSIT) has issued contradictory rulings regarding the taxation of cost-sharing agreements. Previously, COSIT ruled that expenses allocated under cost-sharing agreements between related companies could be deducted for corporate tax purposes. It also said reimbursements under these agreements would not be subject to withholding tax or constitute taxable revenue. However, a recent COSIT ruling contradicted this by saying reimbursements are subject to withholding tax and other taxes, creating uncertainty. The new ruling conflicts with COSIT's prior decisions and legal analysis, as cost-sharing agreements do not involve provision of services between the related entities. This contradiction undermines predictability and consistency in the tax authority's application of tax laws
Contradictory decisions on cost sharing agreementsRamon Tomazela
The Brazilian tax authority (COSIT) has issued contradictory rulings on the taxation of cost-sharing agreements. Previously, COSIT had ruled that expenses allocated under cost-sharing agreements between companies in the same corporate group could be deducted for tax purposes. More recently, COSIT ruled in Tax Ruling No. 43/2015 that amounts remitted to non-residents under internal cost-sharing agreements are subject to withholding tax and other taxes, contradicting its earlier positions. This new ruling goes against the collaborative nature of cost-sharing agreements and creates uncertainty, as tax authorities will now have to apply contradictory reasoning depending on the specific tax.
A Critical Evaluation of the OECD's BEPS ProjectRamon Tomazela
This document provides a critical analysis of the OECD's BEPS (base erosion and profit shifting) project from the perspective of an international tax law expert. It summarizes key actions and proposals from the BEPS project, and identifies challenges. Action 1 addresses taxing the digital economy, but determining which states can tax and allocating taxable profits will be difficult. Action 2 aims to prevent tax benefits from hybrid financial instruments and entities, but linking tax treatments across countries relies on debatable principles of international tax law. The BEPS project may be insufficient to fully address issues caused by economic changes and requires radical tax law reforms.
