How does DAC6 affect banks, investment houses, accounting firms, multinationals, and taxpayers?
DAC6 is a European directive aimed at reducing international tax evasion and promoting transparency. It requires any company that serves as an “intermediary” to a cross-border tax arrangement to assess that arrangement and report it to the tax authorities in some situations.
DAC6 potentially creates a significant compliance burden for companies that are party to a cross-border transaction, even if their role seems incidental. Many investment funds and banks, as well as multi-national corporations, will be exposed to liability under DAC6.
In this webinar, VinciWorks’ DAC6 experts gave guidance on what the Directive means for businesses and how businesses with and without in-house legal teams are managing the DAC6 process and reporting.
During the webinar we covered:
- What is DAC6 and how does it apply to different industries?
- What is a proportionate approach to DAC6?
- Who is responsible for DAC6 reporting?
- When should a DAC6 report be made?
- Do you need to manage your professional advisors’ DAC6 reporting?
- Should staff be trained on DAC6?
- Do you need a reporting tool?
