Repatriation Tax Avoidance
Repatriation tax avoidance is the legal use of a tax regime within a country in order to repatriate income earned by Subsidiary, foreign subsidiaries to a Holding company, parent corporation while Tax avoidance, avoiding taxes ordinarily owed to the parent's country on the repatriation of foreign income. Prior to the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, multinational firms based in the United States owed the U.S. government taxes on worldwide income. Companies avoided taxes on the repatriation of income earned abroad through a variety of strategies involving the use of mergers and acquisitions. Three main types of strategies emerged and were given names—the "Killer B", "Deadly D", and "Outbound F"—each of which took advantage of a different area of the Internal Revenue Code to conduct tax-exempt Reorganization, corporate reorganizations. The application of repatriation tax avoidance strategies has drawn public scrutiny. Several large corporate acquisitions have inv ...

Dutch Sandwich
Dutch Sandwich is a base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) corporate tax tool, used mostly by U.S. multinationals to avoid incurring European Union withholding taxes on untaxed profits as they were being moved to non-EU tax havens (such as the Bermuda black hole). These untaxed profits could have originated from within the EU, or from outside the EU, but in most cases were routed to major EU corporate-focused tax havens, such as Ireland and Luxembourg, by the use of other BEPS tools. The Dutch Sandwich was often used with Irish BEPS tools such as the Double Irish, the Single Malt and the Capital Allowances for Intangible Assets ("CAIA") tools. In 2010, Ireland changed its tax-code to enable Irish BEPS tools to avoid such withholding taxes without needing a Dutch Sandwich. Explanation The structure relies on the tax loophole that most EU countries will allow royalty payments be made to other EU countries without incurring withholding taxes. However, the Dutch tax code ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
