Webinar Details
- With 1% of UK tax generated by overseas operations large corporations are driving the need to simplify the process for the taxation of overseas profits – to increase compliance and reduce cost and time. HMRC's consultation on reform of foreign profits, driven by ECJ case-law, is still ongoing, and in the meantime a number of large UK corporates have announced an intention to move their tax-residence to jurisdictions with lower headline corporate tax rates. What can major corporations do? In this timely webinar you will learn about the latest policies and approaches enabling you to manage your overseas tax strategy. Issues to be discussed include:
- The ECJ background: Cadbury Schweppes, Vodafone 2, CFC Group Litigation
- Reform of taxation of foreign profits: background, status, and the new task-force
- Responses to the UK taxation system: corporate emigration
- Corporate emigration in practice: implementation and maintenance to withstand an HMRC challenge
