- Amount A of Pillar One concerns the re-allocation of taxing rights to market countries. It applies to businesses with global revenues above €20bn - 25% of group’s global residual accounting profit over 10% margin reallocated to markets.
- No new digital services taxes (DSTs) are to be introduced, and existing DSTs are to be repealed – standstill previously extended to 31 December 2024 subject to a ‘critical mass’ of countries signing up to Amount A by the end of 2023. Work is ongoing at the OECD Inclusive Framework.
- A report was issued in February 2024 on ‘Pillar One – Amount B’ outlining a new process for pricing baseline distribution activities in accordance with the arm’s length principle.
- Timing: the OECD Inclusive Framework is working towards finalising a new multilateral convention for Amount A , which will enter into force once it has been ratified through domestic processes by a critical mass of countries. Amount B will apply from 1 January 2025 in countries that opt to apply it.
