Cette Norme, développée en réponse à la demande du G20 et approuvée par le Conseil de l’OCDE le 15 juillet 2014, invite les juridictions à obtenir des renseignements auprès de leurs institutions financières et à les échanger automatiquement avec d’autres juridictions sur une base annuelle. Elle définit les informations relatives aux comptes financiers à échanger, les institutions financières qui ont l’obligation de déclarer, les différents types de comptes et les contribuables visés, ainsi que les procédures communes de diligence raisonnable à suivre par les institutions financières. La Partie I donne un aperçu de la Norme. La Partie II contient le texte du Modèle d’accord entre autorités compétentes et la Norme de déclaration (Modèle d’accord) et de diligence raisonnable (NCD). La Partie III contient les Commentaires sur le Modèle d’accord et la NCD ainsi qu’un certain nombre d’Annexes.
La nouvelle norme s'inspire largement des travaux antérieurs de l’OCDE dans le domaine de l'échange automatique de renseignements, elle intègre les progrès réalisés au sein de l'Union européenne, tout comme les normes internationales de lutte contre le blanchiment, la mise en œuvre du Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) ayant agi comme un catalyseur pour le passage à l'échange automatique de renseignements dans un contexte multilatéral.
Consumption Tax Trends provides information on Value Added Tax/Goods and Services Tax (VAT/GST) and excise duty rates in OECD member countries. It also contains information about indirect tax topics such as international aspects of VAT/GST developments in OECD member countries as well as in selected non-OECD economies, and describes a range of taxation provisions such as the taxation of motor vehicles, tobacco and alcoholic beverages.
Data on government sector receipts, and on taxes in particular, are basic inputs to most structural economic descriptions and economic analyses and are increasingly used in international comparisons. This annual publication presents a unique set of detailed and internationally comparable tax data in a common format for all OECD countries from 1965 onwards. It also gives a conceptual framework to define which government receipts should be regarded as taxes and to classify different types of taxes.
The report examines the distributional effects of value-added tax (VAT) and excise tax systems in 20 OECD countries, and investigates the effectiveness of reduced VAT rates as a redistributional tool.
Les propositions de modifications du Modèle de convention fiscale sont exposées dans ce livrable afin d’empêcher l’utilisation abusive des conventions fiscales. Les pays participant au projet BEPS se sont accordés sur des standards minimum pour prévenir le chalandage fiscal et autres stratégies destinées à obtenir indûment les avantages prévus par certaines dispositions des conventions fiscales. Ce livrable veille également à s’assurer que les conventions fiscales n’entravent pas l’application de règles nationales visant légitimement à prévenir l’utilisation abusive des conventions. Il précise que les conventions fiscales n’ont pas vocation à être utilisées pour aboutir à une double non-imposition et recense également les considérations de politique fiscale que les pays doivent prendre en compte avant de décider de conclure une convention fiscale avec un autre pays. Les modèles de dispositions figurant dans le livrable constituent des orientations appelées à évoluer car d’autres travaux devront être réalisés, en particulier en ce qui concerne la règle relative à la limitation des avantages conventionnels.
Ce livrable fournit des recommandations en vue de l’adoption, au niveau national, de règles destinées à neutraliser les effets des dispositifs hybrides ainsi que des propositions de modifications à apporter au Modèle de convention fiscale de l’OCDE pour combattre ces mécanismes. Une fois transposées dans la législation nationale, les recommandations énoncées dans la Partie 1 du livrable permettront de neutraliser les effets des dispositifs hybrides internationaux aboutissant à de multiples déductions au titre d’une seule dépense ou à une déduction dans un pays ou territoire non contrebalancée par une imposition équivalente dans un autre pays ou territoire. La Partie 1 sera complétée par des commentaires visant à expliquer les règles préconisées et à en illustrer l’application à l’aide d’exemples concrets. La Partie 2 présente des propositions de modifications du Modèle de convention destinées à garantir que les avantages prévus par des conventions fiscales ne sont accordés à des entités hybrides (y compris aux entités ayant la double résidence) que lorsque les circonstances s’y prêtent. Sont également examinées dans la Partie 2 les interactions entre les modifications du Modèle de convention fiscale et les recommandations relatives aux règles devant figurer dans les législations nationales énoncées dans la Partie 1.
Le présent livrable contient des propositions de révisions des Principes de l’OCDE applicables en matière de prix de transfert destinées à faire en sorte que les prix de transfert soient conformes à la création de valeur en matière d’actifs incorporels. Ces propositions visent à clarifier la définition des actifs incorporels ainsi qu’à fournir des instructions concernant les transferts entre parties liées, y compris les transactions portant sur des actifs incorporels et la prise en compte, au regard des prix de transfert, des caractéristiques des marchés locaux et des synergies entre sociétés. Certaines questions concernant les prix de transfert des actifs incorporels sont étroitement liées à d’autres questions qui doivent être traitées en 2015, ayant trait en particulier à la répartition des risques entre les membres d’un groupe d’entreprises multinationales et à la requalification des transactions. C’est à cause des liens entre ces questions que certaines sections du présent livrable sont amenées à évoluer et ne seront finalisées qu’en 2015.
This report contains the 2014 “Phase 2: Implementation of the Standards in Practice” Global Forum review of Gibraltar.
The Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes is the multilateral framework within which work in the area of tax transparency and exchange of information is carried out by over 120 jurisdictions which participate in the work of the Global Forum on an equal footing.
The Global Forum is charged with in-depth monitoring and peer review of the implementation of the standards of transparency and exchange of information for tax purposes. These standards are primarily reflected in the 2002 OECD Model Agreement on Exchange of Information on Tax Matters and its commentary, and in Article 26 of the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and on Capital and its commentary as updated in 2004, which has been incorporated in the UN Model Tax Convention.
The standards provide for international exchange on request of foreseeably relevant information for the administration or enforcement of the domestic tax laws of a requesting party. “Fishing expeditions” are not authorised, but all foreseeably relevant information must be provided, including bank information and information held by fiduciaries, regardless of the existence of a domestic tax interest or the application of a dual criminality standard.
All members of the Global Forum, as well as jurisdictions identified by the Global Forum as relevant to its work, are being reviewed. This process is undertaken in two phases. Phase 1 reviews assess the quality of a jurisdiction’s legal and regulatory framework for the exchange of information, while Phase 2 reviews look at the practical implementation of that framework. Some Global Forum members are undergoing combined – Phase 1 plus Phase 2 – reviews. The ultimate goal is to help jurisdictions to effectively implement the international standards of transparency and exchange of information for tax purposes.

Le développement de l’économie numérique soulève des problématiques en matière de fiscalité internationale. Le présent rapport a vocation à analyser ces défis fiscaux. Les auteurs observent que, parce que l’économie numérique a tendance à devenir l’économie elle-même, il ne serait pas réaliste de vouloir la séparer, à des fins fiscales, des autres pans de l’économie. Ils notent cependant que certains modèles économiques et les principales caractéristiques de l’économie numérique peuvent exacerber les risques d’érosion de la base d’imposition et de transfert de bénéfices. Ces risques seront pris en compte dans le cadre des travaux portant sur les autres actions du Plan d’action BEPS, de même que les principales caractéristiques de l’économie numérique. Une analyse d’un certain nombre de défis fiscaux de portée plus générale soulevés par l’économie numérique est également proposée dans le rapport, complétée par un examen des options envisageables pour les relever, sachant que d’autres travaux devront être menés en 2015 pour évaluer aussi bien les défis que les solutions pour y faire face.
Les régimes préférentiels demeurent une source de tension majeure. Les auteurs du rapport d’étape Lutter contre l’érosion de la base d’imposition et le transfert de bénéfices publié par l’OCDE en 2013 reconnaissent qu’il est nécessaire de combattre ces régimes plus efficacement et de recentrer les travaux du Forum sur les pratiques fiscales dommageables sur la substance et la transparence. Le présent rapport d’étape est un rapport dans lequel sont décrits les progrès accomplis à ce jour.
Ce rapport contient des standards révisés pour la documentation des prix de transfert ainsi qu’un formulaire de déclaration, pays par pays, du chiffre d’affaires, des bénéfices, des impôts acquittés et de certaines mesures de l’activité économique. Ces nouvelles dispositions en matière de déclaration, et la transparence qu’elles encourageront, contribueront à la réalisation de l’objectif consistant à appréhender, contrôler et combattre les comportements pouvant donner lieu à l’érosion de la base d’imposition et au transfert de bénéfices. Les pays participant au projet BEPS suivront attentivement la mise en application de ces nouvelles normes et examineront au plus tard à la fin de 2020 s’il y a lieu de les modifier pour exiger la déclaration de données différentes ou supplémentaires. La mise en œuvre effective des nouvelles règles en matière de déclaration sera primordiale. D’autres travaux seront entrepris pour déterminer la meilleure façon de communiquer les informations exigées et de les transmettre aux administrations fiscales.

Building on prior work that resulted in the practical guide Managing Service Demand, this report explores the strategies revenue bodies can use to improve take-up of self-service channels in the context of a proposed future service experience for individuals, businesses and tax intermediaries.
This study provides practical guidance to revenue bodies wishing to enhance and enrich their existing measures with timely measures of compliance outcomes. The study shares experiences of what has worked for revenue bodies, what challenges have been faced and how they might be overcome.
This study introduces the concept of “Tax Compliance by design”. It describes how revenue bodies can exploit developments in technology and the ways in which modern SMEs organise themselves to incorporate tax compliance into the systems businesses use to manage their financial affairs.
