BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Following the adoption of the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC) in the field of taxation (2011/16/EU) in 2011, the scope of the EU DAC has expanded considerably to also include information on:
  • financial accounts (DAC2)
  •  tax rulings and advance pricing agreements (DAC3)
  • (now public) country-by-country reports (DAC4)
  • beneficial ownership (DAC5)
  • reportable cross-border arrangements (DAC6)
  • platform operators (DAC7)
  •  crypto-asset service providers (DAC8).

This webinar will examine the recent developments at an OECD and EU level in developing a crypto-asset reporting framework to extend mandatory automatic reporting obligations to crypto-assets. In particular, this webinar shall address the Council Directive (EU) 2023/2226 of 17 October 2023 amending Directive 2011/16/EU on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation (DAC8).

SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION


  • Introduction to the EU Directive on Administrative Cooperation
  • The OECD’s Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework
  • The adoption of DAC8 at an EU level
  • Expected effects of DAC8 on the crypto-space


    Why is the session of relevance to our members?

    DAC8 introduces mandatory EU tax disclosure rules of crypto asset transactions in a harmonised and standardised manner. Members and non-members are encouraged to attend this session and understand how their work may be impacted by these new requirements.

      Target Audience

      Accountants, lawyers, service providers and professionals working on, or with an interest in, crypto-assets and crypto-asset service providers (including crypto exchanges).
