04 Nov GOOGLE TAX AND THE TAXATION OF THE FUTURE
How are the 5 big digital companies taxed?
The purpose of this advanced seminar is to learn about the taxation of multinationals such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft (GAFAM) as they often escape taxation in certain countries where they have tens of millions of customers.
The Google Tax was created with the aim of making such companies pay tax on their income, which has generated many consequencesand questions: What happens if they refuse to pay the tax? How will it affect the ordinary citizen? EU plans and international negotiations? At what rate will they be taxed? How much is it intended to collect? These are just some of the questions that will be the subject of our seminar.
And those questions are going to be useful in order to introduce us to the corporate taxation in the biggest companies, not only in GAFAM, which also helps to understand taxation from two points of view: firstly, savings (tax planification) and, secondly, tax enforceability (tax compliance)… “The taxation of the future”, which is “The Future of the Taxation”.
