KPMG Digital Services Tax Quick Check

Digital services tax is gaining ground

There is still no uniform regulation, a series of countries have already introduced their own digital services tax. While the thresholds for the occurrence of a tax liability are still relatively high and tax rates relatively low, digital services tax presents challenges for many companies. The tax liability does not affect only digital groups and it is independent of the company's domicile. It therefore makes sense to deal with any effects at an early stage.
