With the EU elections coming up, it is the perfect time to engage in a collective reflection on the future of the EU tax system.
Due to their proximity with companies, tax advisers find themselves at the epicentre of the regulatory landscape. When they are not themselves in charge of the filing obligations resulting from EU law, they help businesses navigate the complexities of EU tax legislation. In recent years, EU tax proposals have been issued at an incredible speed and the EU tax system has become highly complex. At the same time, these legislations generate an always higher reporting burden for taxpayers and tax authorities, which sometimes comes at the cost of efficiency.
This conference will bring together tax experts and EU officials to explore what the tax policies under the next European Commission should look like, as well as the future perspectives for tax advisers in the European Union.
On this occasion, ETAF will also present its manifesto for the EU elections outlining several core demands to the next European Parliament and European Commission to ensure that the EU tax system is simpler, rationalised and future-proof.
