Tax Information Exchange

Definition

Tax Information Exchange refers to the sharing of taxpayer financial data between the tax authorities of different countries. This process is a crucial tool in combating international tax evasion and ensuring global tax compliance. It can occur through various mechanisms, including bilateral agreements, multilateral conventions, and automatic reporting standards. The objective is to provide tax administrations with the necessary information to accurately assess tax liabilities, particularly for cross-border investments and income.
