ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ
The main purpose of DAC 6 is to improve tax-transparency and tackle potentially aggressive (cross-border) tax-planning arrangements in order to protect the tax base of the E.U. Member States. The implementation of the EU directive means that member states of EU are obliged to implement mandatory disclosure rules for cross-border arrangements. The EU Council Directive 2011/16 (as amended), known as DAC 6, requires “intermediaries” (or potentially, taxpayers) to report, and tax authorities to exchange, information regarding reportable cross-border arrangements, which meet one or more specified characteristics (“hallmarks”), and which concern at least one EU country.
DAC 6 is very broad in scope and, notwithstanding the stated purpose of the measures as described in the recitals to the Directive, DAC 6 also applies to many standard transactions with no particular tax motive. DAC6 imposes mandatory reporting of cross-border arrangements, affecting at least one Member State, where the said arrangements fall within one of a number of specified “Hallmarks”. The use of the words, “affecting at least one Member State”, means that the reportability of arrangements under the Directive is not limited to cross-border transactions within the E.U; it also includes arrangements between entities in the E.U. and entities in non-E.U. jurisdictions (for instance, an arrangement/transaction between a Cyprus resident company and an Indian company).
ΣΚΟΠΟΣ ΣΕΜΙΝΑΡΙΟΥ
By attending this course participants will be able:
- To describe DAC 6 and critically analyse these new Mandatory Disclosure Rules as a new development in the public management of tax avoidance
- To comprehend DAC6 as a permanent change in the relationship between the Tax Authorities on the one hand and intermediaries and taxpayers on the other hand
- To elaborate on who possibly might have an obligation to disclose reportable cross-border arrangements: intermediaries, assistant intermediaries, and taxpayers
- To critically assess which cross-border arrangements may indicate aggressive tax planning and need be reported beforehand to the Tax Authorities
- To cover the hallmarks and the main benefit test set out in this Directive.
- To understand how reasonable security safeguards should be used to protect personal data from loss, unauthorised access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure
- To explain the order of reporting obligation, exemptions, and reporting deadlines
- To critically assess how the Cyprus government has interpreted and approached DAC6
- To critically assess the expected consequences of the Cyprus implementation including the expected benefits and costs of MDR
- To determine if the Cyprus implementation is a proportionate measure to prevent tax avoidance and evasion in the form of aggressive tax planning
