This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Issues of transfer pricing have come to the fore in both international tax and customs regimes. In particular, the problem of how to apply the two systems of valuation to the same transaction is of widespread concern. This well-known book, now in a fully updated second edition, is a problem-solving guide for professionals charged with valuating transactions in their client’s or company’s best interests. Through detailed examination of relevant guidelines, transfer pricing methodologies, and business realities prevailing among multinational enterprises, it offers a cogent and convincing account of how tax and customs transfer pricing regimes may be harmonized. Among other essential elements, the author discusses the following in depth: – the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines; – the GATT/WTO Customs Valuation Code (GVC) and other valuation rules in key jurisdictions and regional agreements; – the OECD and UN model tax conventions; – the arm’s length principle; – methods, both traditional and new, of determining whether the parties’ relationship in uenced the price; and – additions to and deductions from the customs value. This second edition discusses new developments in the eld, including a chapter on Commentary 23.1 and Case Study 14.1 of the Technical Committee on Customs Valuation of the World Customs Organization (WCO) – the rst international instruments linking transfer pricing and customs valuation. The book concludes with an analysis of the circumstances and conditions under which the introduction of transfer pricing year-end adjustments to transaction value would be consistent with Article 1 of the GVC. The book will continue to provide practitioners, customs administrations, and academics with a highly practical analysis of the intersection of transfer pricing and customs valuation. It will be welcomed by customs administrations charged with examining the acceptability of a transaction value xed between related parties and by multinational companies as a truly actionable tool they can use to optimize decision-making as it relates to transfer pricing and customs valuation in a “real world” setting.
Download or read book The Customs Valuation Agreement written by Mark K. Neville and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2023-03-09 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Trade Law Series, Volume 58 Customs valuation is a key element in the corpus of international trade law. Despite the facts that the /WTO Valuation Agreement 1994 remains unchanged in all material respects and that it has been adopted by virtually every trading nation on the planet, there are fissures in the system preventing consensus on many contentious questions. This extremely knowledgeable analysis by a world-renowned specialist lawyer in the field—by concentrating on diverging views on the nature of the central feature of the Agreement, the definition of the price actually paid or payable (PAPP)—provides the most extensive study available of the origins and architecture of the Valuation Agreement and its intersection with transfer pricing norms. Among much else, the author fully explains differing views on such questions as the following: criteria governing royalties and license fees; acceptability of the First Sale for Export doctrine; role of transport charges in valuing dutiable assists; status of interest payments on deferred payments; valuation of carrier media bearing software for data processing equipment; inclusion or exclusion of transport charges in the PAPP; status of the WTO’s moratorium on electronic transmissions; status of payments of money for tools and other materials used in producing the imported goods; and status of international instruments of traffic. The author expertly assesses interpretations of the Valuation Agreement as presented in the instruments of the World Customs Organization and in the administrative and judicial fora of the United States, Canada, and the European Union. This matchless book takes a giant step toward “real-world” consensus on the daunting questions of custom valuation. Customs and international tax professionals, as well as academic scholars, will come away from its in-depth coverage with an enhanced ability to discern the logic inherent in the Valuation Agreement, a greater awareness of current trends and their origins in authoritative customs valuation bodies, and improved confidence when approaching customs valuation questions.

Download or read book Customs Valuation and Transfer Pricing ICC Proposals written by J-M. Salva and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The article studies the relationship between transfer pricing and customs valuation. The author explains two different approaches of transfer pricing, the first one adopted by tax agencies, based on the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines and the second adopted by customs agencies, based on the WTO Customs Valuation Agreement (CVA). From the business perspective, the divergence between the two taxation regimes is an obstacle to the liberalization of trade and inhibits international development for companies. On the other hand, the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) believes that the WTO CVA and the use of the OECD Guidelines are enough to settle the issue of customs valuation and transfer pricing. However, ICC specifies that tax and customs approaches of intercompany transactions should converge to the same value. In this goal, ICC published a policy statement in 2012, which has been integrated in the WCO guidelines. This statement, based on the harmonization of the current rules, contains several additional options to derive customs value. The author states that the Union Customs Code does not contain any evolution from a transfer pricing perspective but contains some negatives changes regarding custom valuation. Also, the opportunity of the WCO Free Trade Agreement should be taken to move forward on this issue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The exponential growth of international trade and the rapid expansion of corporate supply chains due to the rapid globalization of recent decades have placed increasing strains on systems of trade regulation and tax administration designed for a world of discrete states and corporate entities. A particular area where this tension has become pronounced is in the disconnect between customs valuation and transfer pricing, the legal regimes for valuing international transactions for purposes of assessing import tariffs and corporate income tax respectively. While both systems establish similar broad baselines -- the “arm's-length principle” for transfer pricing and the “transaction value principle” for customs valuation -- because of the different goals of each system and the scope of transactions to which each applies, the specific methods used differ, leading to confusion and inefficiency. Efforts to coordinate the two systems, both at an international level and in the U.S., are progressing but incomplete. This paper illuminates the disparity in these two systems, with a specific focus on the U.S, through studying current laws, regulations, and practices in both areas, along with the steps taken thus far to align them, concluding with recommendations for how these efforts should be continued. This paper was written for the Transfer Pricing: Special Topics graduate-level seminar at Georgetown University Law Center during the Spring 2015 term.
