1 Overview and Learning Objectives This three-day intermediate-level course concentrates on a number of common international tax planning scenarios in the Middle East region. It examines the widely used regional tax planning routes, structures and tax treaties. Attention will also be paid to domestic and regional tax policy and transfer pricing developments. Special consideration will be given to certain domestic tax regimes such as Bahrain, Egypt, Lebanon, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. The course covers, through a combination of formal presentations and complex case studies, some common tax planning tools involving holdings, financing and treasury companies and branches, and tax consolidation regimes. Inbound and outbound tax planning techniques will both be examined. The course will present the latest issues for manufacturing and distributor multinational enterprises. It will conclude with an introduction to tax planning related to holding companies, R&D activities and intangibles, including the potential impact of recent international developments under the OECD Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project on tax planning in the Middle East countries. This course is designed to provide participants who deal with international tax planning in the Middle East with updates on relevant tax treaty and transfer pricing developments. The course is also important for those tax professionals who are not based in the Middle East but whose day-today work requires further knowledge of the tax issues of the region. Who Should Attend? The course is suitable for practitioners in tax advisory firms, in-house tax specialists in commerce and industry, and government officials. This course may also be chosen as part of the curriculum of the IBFD Advanced Professional Certificate in International Taxation. Further information about this certification programme can be found at Course Level and Prerequisites This is an intermediate-level course. Participants taking this course will be expected to have a good understanding of at least one national tax system and the fundamentals of double tax treaties.
