Principles of International Tax Planning
International tax planning has gained a lot of attention from both the perspective of taxpayers and tax authorities. This course deals with the building blocks of international taxation, such as the concept of permanent establishment and the arm’s length principle, as applied for international tax planning purposes. It focuses on the boundaries between legitimate tax planning, tax avoidance, and tax evasion, by analyzing relevant case law. Finally, it deals with some tax planning schemes for multinational enterprises and the current debate around tax compliance.
