Popular Media

Although there is no broad-based national consumption tax in the United States, 45 of the 50 states and the District of Columbia, as well as thousands of local jurisdictions, impose general retail sales taxes.

Reflections On The Role Of The Oecd In Developing International Tax Norms, Hugh Ault

Hugh J. Ault

On September 8–9, 2008, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) held a Special Conference commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the OECD Model Tax Convention (“Model Convention” or “Model”). The Conference was attended by over 650 participants from the private sector and the government, representing over 100 countries.

Improving The Resolution Of International Tax Disputes, Hugh Ault Dec 2004

Improving The Resolution Of International Tax Disputes, Hugh Ault

Hugh J. Ault

The dramatic increase in international trade and investments and related phenomena under the general heading of Globalization have multiplied the situations in which international tax disputes can arise, both between taxpayers and governments but also, and in some ways, more importantly, between governments themselves. These disputes may involve transfer pricing issues, differing income characterization rules, disagreement about the existence of a permanent establishment, or more generally, diverging views on the appropriate exercise of potential taxing rights by the source country jurisdiction and the corresponding obligation of the residence country to provide double tax relief. In the current circumstances, it seems …
