3 OUTLINE OF REQUIREMENTS FOR A SIGNIFICANT GLOBAL ENTITY (SGE)
4 BACKGROUND OECD framework OECD BEPS Action 13 on Transfer Pricing Documentation and Country-by- Country Reporting issued in 2015 An Australian entity that is a member of a group of entities (either the global parent entity or one of the other group members) Group is consolidated for accounting purposes and has annual global income AUD 1 billion or more 4
5 EXTRA COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR SGES Country by Country Reporting Three Tiered Structure Master File - standardised information relevant for all MNE group members. Prepared globally and lodged locally Local File - containing information relevant to material transactions of the local taxpayer (different from Australian transfer pricing documentation). Prepared and lodged locally Country-by-Country Report - information relating to the global allocation of the MNE s income and taxes paid together with certain indicators of the location of economic activity within the MNE group. Prepared and lodged globally. Master File Local Files Country by Country Report 5
6 WHY DO SIGNIFICANT GLOBAL ENTITIES NEED TO COMPLY? Administrative penalties increased from 1 July 2017 Failure to lodge tax documents including CbC Reporting documents on time will attract maximum potential penalties ranging from AUD 105,000 to AUD 525,000 (depending on timing) Penalties applied to transfer pricing adjustments are doubled for SGEs and can exceed the relevant tax shortfall Particulars Scheme, Statement and unarguable positions Failure to lodge on time penalty Potential penalties Base penalty amount is determined by a % of shortfall amount, which depends upon the taxpayer behaviour, with maximum penalties of 75% for statement penalties and 50% for scheme penalties. Penalty % is also dependent on other circumstances (e.g. existence of Australian transfer pricing documentation and aggravating/mitigating circumstances). Penalties for failure to lodge - Base penalty amount determined as penalty units per period of 28 days (or part thereof) of late lodgement i.e. 1 penalty unit for small entities, 2 penalty units for medium entities and five penalty units for large entities 6
7 NEW DEVELOPMENTS FOR SGES Multinational Anti-avoidance Law (MAAL) Key Details: Applies on or after 1 January 2016 irrespective of when the scheme commenced Targets schemes that limit a taxable presence or permanent establishment (PE) in Australia: Target profit on sales activities occurring offshore where the activities of a related entity in Australia are integral to gathering those sales MAAL requires a principal purpose (not sole principal purpose) to either obtain an Australian tax benefit or reduce or defer foreign tax Where MAAL applies, the foreign entity will likely be deemed to have a notional PE in Australia Diverted Profits Tax (DPT) Key Details: Purpose of the DPT is to align tax paid with the economic substance and punish SGEs for diverting profits offshore Does not apply if one of these tests apply: AUD 25 million Income test; Sufficient foreign tax test (Relevant income recognised for foreign tax purposes is less than 24%) Sufficient economic substance test Applies to tax benefit for an income year that starts on or after 1 July The DPT can apply to a scheme entered into or commenced to be carried out before 1 July 2017 Punitive 40 per cent tax applied on profits that are found to have been diverted to low taxed countries Adopts the UK s pay now, argue later approach 7
8 NEW DEVELOPMENTS FOR SGES General Purpose Financial Statements Does the company fall within the following criteria? Australian resident or PE Not required by ASIC to prepare GPFS Required to lodge an income tax return If the answer to the above criteria is yes then the company needs to prepare GPFS and lodge with the income tax return. When does it come into effect? Income years commencing on or after 1 July 2016 How many GPFS need to be prepared? Consolidated statements that include an Australian subsidiary maybe be permissible Each entity not part of tax consolidated group must submit one GPFS Does GPFS need to be audited? GPFS does not need to be audited however practically auditing the GPFS provides evidence that the accounting standards have been applied What is the penalty for not complying? The penalty for non-compliance is the administrative penalty multiplied by a factor of 100 (i.e., maximum of $525,000 per document) 8
