\n
\n The European Commission has published responses to the consultation on its proposals for a common set of corporate tax rules across member states, known as Business in Europe: Framework for Income Taxation (BEFIT).
\n <\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n

Responses to the BEFIT consultation<\/a> will feed into the European Commission\u2019s thinking around any proposals for common corporate tax rules. Adoption<\/a> of these proposals is still noted as the third quarter of 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Around two-thirds of public consultation survey respondents (50\/77) agree or strongly agree that the current situation, with 27 different national corporate tax systems, gives rise to problems in the internal market. However, some business associations are happy with the status quo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Taxpayers and administrations expressed mixed views as to whether the proposed approach would lead to simplification. There was also no consensus on compliance costs: some thought that compliance costs would increase, whereas others thought that harmonisation might lower compliance costs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
