6 Permanent Establishment sample treaty article Definition For the purposes of this Convention, the term "permanent establishment" means a fixed place of business through which the business of an enterprise is wholly or partly carried on. The term "permanent establishment" includes especially: (a) a place of management; (b) a branch; (c) an office; (d) factory; (e) a workshop; (f) a warehouse, in relation to a person providing storage facilities for others; and (g) a mine, an oil or gas well, a quarry or any other place of exploration for, or extraction of, natural resources. The term permanent establishment likewise encompasses a building site or construction, installation or assembly project, or supervisory activities in connection therewith, but only if the site, project or activity lasts more than six months within any 12 month period.
7 Permanent Establishment Exclusions The term "permanent establishment" shall be deemed not to include: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) the use of facilities solely for the purpose of storage, display or delivery of goods or merchandise belonging to the enterprise; the maintenance of a stock of goods or merchandise belonging to the enterprise solely for the purpose of storage, display or delivery; the maintenance of a stock of goods or merchandise belonging to the enterprise solely for the purpose of processing by another enterprise; the maintenance of a fixed place of business solely for the purpose of purchasing goods or merchandise or of collecting information, for the enterprise; the maintenance of a fixed place of business solely for the purpose of carrying on, for the enterprise, any other activity of a preparatory or auxiliary character; and he maintenance of a fixed place of business solely for any combination of activities mentioned in subparagraphs (a) to (e), provided that the overall activity of the fixed place of business resulting from this combination is of a preparatory or auxiliary character.
8 Permanent Establishment Agents Dependent agent Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2, where a person - other than an agent of an independent status to whom paragraph 6 applies - is acting on behalf of an enterprise and has, and habitually exercises, in a Contracting State an authority to conclude contracts in the name of the enterprise, that enterprise shall be deemed to have a permanent establishment in that State in respect of any activities which that person undertakes for the enterprise, unless the activities of such person are limited to those mentioned in paragraph 4 which, if exercised through a fixed place of 12 business, would not make this fixed place of business a permanent establishment under the provisions of that paragraph. Independent Agent An enterprise shall not be deemed to have a permanent establishment in a Contracting State merely because it carries on business in that State through a broker, general commission agent or any other agent of an independent status, provided that such persons are acting in the ordinary course of their business. However, when the activities of such an agent are devoted wholly or almost wholly on behalf of that enterprise, and conditions are made or imposed between that enterprise and the agent in their commercial and financial relations which differ from those which would have been made between independent enterprises, he will not be considered an agent of an independent status within the meaning of this paragraph.
9 PERMANENT ESTABLISHMENT MLI changes PPT rules under MLI - all member states New anti-fragmentation (Ireland + 12 other member states) Ireland not opting for Dependent Agent Provisions (8 countries have) or Narrower definitions of Preparatory / Auxiliary functions Ireland not opting for new rules on Construction contracts (France & Slovakia) US not in MLI. Both treaty countries must elect to adopt a provision in order for it to apply. Effect of change may not be as significant as originally anticipated. Discussion points Functions and authority will determine whether a PE is triggered. PE status PE must be remunerated on an arm s length basis / Transfer pricing analysis required. Credit available for foreign tax but limited to the Irish tax on the same income. Not only corporation tax; Sales tax / VAT / customs / employment taxes / local taxes must be considered. Different requirements in different jurisdictions regarding accounts preparation.
10 TRANSFER PRICING OVERVIEW
11 TRANSFER PRICING Scope of Irish TP rules Introduced in Finance Bill 2010, to bring Irish tax legislation in line with international norms. Governs transactions with associated companies. Exemption for Small and Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs). The Irish TP rules do not apply to small and medium sized enterprises, i.e. it only applies to an enterprise, on a group basis, that has; a) in excess of 250 employees, And a) (i) a turnover exceeding 50 million or (ii) total assets exceeding 43 million A formal Revenue opinion can be sought. Advance agreements June Revenue published the Bilateral Advance Pricing Agreement Guidelines ( the Guidelines ) relating to the operation of Ireland s Advance Pricing Agreement ( APA ) programme. The bilateral APA programme is intended to apply in respect of a transactions where the transfer pricing issues involved are complex (e.g. there is significant doubt over the appropriate application of the arm s length principle or where there would otherwise be a high likelihood of double taxation arising). Voluntary system Only 4 APA s issued at 31/12/2017.
12 Transfer Pricing Two unique rules 1. Only applies to trading transactions confined to related party dealings that are taxable at Ireland s corporate tax rate of 12.5%. Activities that are deemed to be non-trading or passive are excluded from the scope of the regime. Does not apply to non-trading activities, e.g. financing activities such as interest free loans that are non-trading in nature. 2. Grandfather clause TP Rules do not apply to arrangements agreed prior to 1 July No time limit imposed. The pre-1 July 2010 agreement must clearly envisage the transaction and deliver the price.
13 Transfer pricing Pricing methods Cost plus basis This method takes the direct and indirect costs of the controlled transaction and adds the appropriate mark up so that a profit is made on the controlled transaction. The cost plus method is often most appropriate where the cost of the product or services provision, rather than sale price, is the key value driver. This will be determined through the functional analysis. Other methods Resale price method Transaction Net Margin Method Profit Split The cost plus method is often used in transactions involving a contract manufacturer, a toll manufacturer or a low risk assembler which does not own product intangibles and incurs little risk.
14 Transfer pricing Pricing of associated transactions
15 Transfer Pricing Safe harbour The Irish tax authorities, on March , issued new guidance to taxpayers on Ireland s simplified transfer pricing approach to low-value intra-group services ( LVIGS ). LVIGS are services, performed by one or more entities within an MNE group for one or more recipient entities within the same MNE group, which typically exhibit the following features; administrative or routine nature, supportive in nature and not part of the core business of the MNE group do not use or create unique and valuable intangible assets. do not involve significant risk for the service provider. The Irish tax authorities have confirmed that it is prepared to accept a markup of 5% of the relevant cost base, without the need for a benchmarking study where the service is the provision of LVIGS, which is in line with previous guidance released by the EU in respect of LVIGS.
16 Revenue TP compliance reviews Revenue audits Transfer pricing compliance review (TPCR) In November 2012, Revenue launched an initiative to monitor compliance with the Irish transfer pricing regulations. Not considered an audit for penalty purposes, but potentially could escalate into an audit of transfer pricing Requirement to submit a self-review report incorporating: Group structure; Details of related party transactions; Transfer pricing policies utilised; The relative function, asset and risk profile of parties to the transactions; and The basis for determining that the arm s length principle has been satisfied Transfer pricing audits In 2015, Revenue established a dedicated transfer pricing audit branch in LCD No details published on number of cases or adjustments raised to date More in-depth, more resources needed than TPCR
17 Revenue TP compliance reviews Sample review letter
18 Transfer Pricing Take away points While business may fall within TP SME exemption here, this may not follow suit when operating in another jurisdiction. Applies equally to Branch or Subsidiary. TP increasingly being used in the hunt for revenues by tax authorities. Volume of tax audits rapidly rising and increasingly aggressive. Understand local TP rules and documentation requirements.
19 TAX REFORM
20 Tax reform Political momentum Tax reform at OECD and EU level but this was given fresh political impetus with the global financial crash. Heightened focus on the tax affairs of multinational companies came amidst the global financial crisis. Are large corporates paying enough? Continuing tax controversy Lux Leaks Ireland / Apple case Dutch / Starbucks case (UK; reported a 8.1m current tax bill on pre-tax profits of 34.2m only slightly less than the total it paid over the 14 years following its arrival in the UK in 1998). Panama Papers / Mossack Fonseca Existing international tax rules were designed 80 years ago - international tax framework had not kept pace with global and digitally driven businesses. G20 meeting February 2013 agreed the need to prevent base erosion and profit shifting, requesting the OECD to report on BEPS.
21 Tax reform BEPS goals Greater alignment of taxable profits and the location of economic substance. Increasing the transparency of corporates tax affairs through Country-by-Country Reporting ( CbCR ) and the automatic exchange of information between tax authorities. Re-design of preferential IP regimes to ensure that there is a nexus between the qualifying income and the location of the underlying R&D activities. Addressing tax relief on financing and interest payments hybrid entities & instruments. Re-design of transfer pricing principles which will reform the way in which profits are allocated within corporate groups.
22 TAX REFORM BEPS 2015 Final Reports October 2015
23 Implementation - the big players
24 TAX REFORM IRELAND Corporate tax residence rules reformed; changes were made to Ireland s corporate tax residence rules in Finance (No.2) Act 2013 to prevent Irish incorporated companies from being stateless for tax purposes and in Finance Act 2014 to shut down known structures (such as the socalled Double Irish ) which were designed to exploit gaps in US anti-avoidance rules KDB introduced OECD approved modified nexus approach. CbCR Country by Country Reporting introduced in Finance Act 2015 and subsequently agreed a Directive (DAC4) to ensure a consistent approach on CbCR across the EU. 750M group threshold. MLI Ireland were among the group of countries to sign the BEPS multilateral instrument at the first possible opportunity. This will see the majority of Ireland s tax treaties updated to be BEPS compliant. EU ATAD; Ireland agreed two Anti-Tax Avoidance Directives (ATADs) with our fellow EU Member States in 2016 and New CFC / Interest limitation / Exit Tax
25 TAX REFORM IRELAND TP Rules; The 2017 OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines will be incorporated into Irish law and will apply from 1 January Further consultation is expected on broader changes to the Irish transfer pricing regime during CRS; Early adopter of the OECD Common Reporting Standard on Exchange of Financial Account Information, and in 2012 Ireland became the 4th country in the world to sign a FATCA Agreement with the USA. DAC 5 exchange of access for tax administrations to information about beneficial owners of companies DAC 6 - a common mandatory reporting regime for tax advisers and companies where transactions are entered into that meet certain hallmarks (Ireland had mandatory reporting pre DAC 6) Automatic exchange; Ireland fully implemented EU Directive (DAC3) to provide for the automatic exchange of information on advance cross-border tax rulings and advance pricing arrangements among all Member States. Ireland is also fully compliant with the BEPS Action 5 requirements on exchange of this taxpayer information.
26 TAX REFORM IRELAND MLI Steps to ratify MLI initiated in Finance Act 2017, to be completed before the end of MLI will then generally start to have effect for Ireland from the beginning of Key features PPT Regarding the prevention of tax treaty abuse, Ireland intends to adopt the Principal Purpose Test (PPT) provided for in Article 7. This will introduce this general anti-avoidance clause into any treaty where the treaty partner also chooses the PPT option. As Ireland has a domestic general anti-avoidance rule which is similar in nature to the new treaty rule, we do not believe this will create significant additional planning in establishing new structures or maintaining existing ones. WHT As Ireland does not currently have a minimum holding period in order to reduce WHT applicable to dividend payments, the adoption of new ownership holding period provisions under the MLI will require more careful examination of the availability of reduced rates. Permanent Establishments Ireland will adopt Option B of Article 13 the anti-fragmentation rule, which is consistent with Ireland s longstanding interpretation of the provisions. Practically therefore, this will not trigger significant change over existing practice. Ireland also intends to adopt the anti-fragmentation rule in Article 13(4) which is designed to prevent corporate groups from fragmenting a cohesive operating business into several small operations in order to avail of these exemptions.
27 TAX REFORM IRELAND EU ATAD key measures The introduction of Controlled Foreign Company ( CFC ) rules by all member states. CFC rules are anti-avoidance rules that reattribute the income of a low-taxed controlled foreign subsidiary to its - usually more highly taxed - parent company. Provided for in Finance Bill Effective 1/1/2019 A 12.5% exit tax on IP developed in the EU when it is transferred outside the EU. Budget New rules on interest deductibility for intra-group loans - generally limiting the deduction to 30% of a company's earnings (EBITDA). Certain exceptions to the interest limitation rules apply (Deferred until 2024). 3M de minimus threshold. New General Anti-Avoidance Rules. Implementation EU Member States which have equivalent rules will be allowed to continue with those rules until the OECD recommends a minimum standard of interest limitation rules, or at the latest by 1 January 2024.
