Intra-group services and their tax implications

We will acquaint you with the tax implications that may arise when providing services within a group of companies. We will focus on transfer prices and cost sharing. Attention will also be drawn to instances in which the provision of services may lead to the formation of a permanent establishment and to instances in which payments for services may be subject to withholding tax.
