Show full summary
- U.S. digital companies: Says DSTs often target a small group of U.S. firms and tax gross revenue instead of profit, creating burdens and risks of double taxation.
- Consumers and customers: Notes that gross-revenue taxes can raise costs for customers because they can be applied to revenue unconnected to in-country presence.
- U.S. trade and tax agencies: Would back using all appropriate tools, including Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development talks, Section 301 investigations, World Trade Organization disputes, or trade penalties to protect U.S. companies.
- International tax rules: Calls on other countries to repeal DSTs and seek an OECD consensus built on no double taxation, evidence-based rules, net taxation over gross taxation, and legal certainty.
