MNC Digital companies may face a minimum level of tax
Multinational technology and digital companies may have to cough up a minimum level of corporate tax, bringing an end to the popular practice of lowering or avoiding taxes by setting up entities in low-tax jurisdictions. The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) on Friday unveiled for public consultation a proposal on taxation of digital companies. It seeks to use financial accounts as a starting point for determining the tax base and provide guidance on the extent to which an MNC can combine income and taxes from different sources in determining the effective tax rate on such income.
