How to ensure tax certainty from a transfer pricing perspective?
Taxpayers are required to maintain the arm’s length nature of the consideration between related parties at the time of pricing transactions. In practice, this means having a transfer pricing analysis that confirms the market nature of the consideration in order to prove their case to the authorities and meet their tax obligations.
In addition, the development of high-quality transfer pricing analyses provides adequate security in the event of a potential dispute with the tax authorities.
Already in the planning phase of related-party transactions, it is worth considering the transfer pricing tax rules, especially in the context of preparing a transfer pricing analysis. Such an approach will ensure the marketability of the transaction from the moment it is implemented.
In addition, the analysis can also be a source of knowledge about
- Competitors in the industry,
- An examination of the financial position of comparable companies,
- Potential collaborative partners.
