Corporate tax

Corporation tax is a tax that is levied on the profits that businesses or organisations make. Corporation tax and other profit taxes are important areas for international cooperation. By making joint agreements, countries want to prevent profit shifting and various forms of tax avoidance by multinational enterprises.

International guidelines

International organisations such as the OECD and the EU play an important role in developing guidelines and frameworks to ensure fair and transparent practices for profit taxes such as corporation tax worldwide. Interpreting and applying those guidelines is not always easy. That can make it complicated to comply with tax obligations in an efficient way, and to align tax choices with your (tax) strategy.

The Dutch business sector also has to deal with the interpretation and application of the rules of corporation tax. Rules on interest deduction, mergers and acquisitions, exemptions and facilities, the use of tax incentives, sometimes advice on how to find your way in this is indispensable. This is especially true for specific sectors such as listed companies, private equity firms, businesses in the financial sector, public sector and family businesses.
