  1. The EU’s approach to corporate tax policy in a changing international environment

    Parliament set out its position on the European Union's approach to corporate tax policy in a changing international environment, a report covering rules such as the global minimum tax for large multinational groups and the anti-tax-avoidance directive. Parliament adopted the text as its official position, so it now carries political weight but does not create law. The report argues that the international tax framework has become too complex and disadvantages European Union companies, and that the Union and its member states should strengthen coordination and speak with one voice in multilateral forums.

  2. Business in Europe: Framework for Income Taxation (BEFIT)

    The BEFIT proposal introduces a common system for calculating the corporate tax base of large cross-border business groups in the EU and for allocating these tax bases among group members. Parliament adopted its position on the proposed law, approving the Commission proposal as amended. Parliament calls on the Commission to alter its proposal accordingly and asks the Council to notify Parliament if it intends to depart from the text approved.

  3. Administrative cooperation in the field of taxation

    The proposal updates EU rules on administrative cooperation in taxation to simplify reporting for multinational groups under the global minimum tax directive. Parliament approved the proposal, backing a central filing system and a standard form to reduce administrative burden. It asks the Council to notify Parliament if it departs from the approved text and to consult it again on substantial amendments.
