OECD update on the implementation of BEPS Action 13 and Action 14
The OECD released the fourth annual peer review of BEPS Action 13 on improving tax transparency through Country-by-Country Reporting (CbCR) and BEPS Action 14 on the resolution of tax related disputes between jurisdictions.
Highlights from the report include:
- Over 100 jurisdictions have already introduced legislation to impose a filing obligation on MNE groups, covering practically all MNE groups with consolidated group revenue at or above the threshold of €750 million. Remaining Inclusive Framework members are working towards finalising their domestic legal frameworks with the support of the OECD.
- Where legislation is in place, the implementation of CbC Reporting has been found largely consistent with the Action 13 minimum standard.
- A large number of recommendations made in the first three peer review phases have now been addressed and these recommendations have been removed.
- More than 3,000 bilateral relationships for the exchange of CbC reports are now in place.
