| Ireland, Liechtenstein Enhance Tax Cooperation |
by Jason Gorringe, Tax-News.com, London
Thursday, October 15, 2009
On October 13, Liechtenstein’s Prime Minister Klaus Tschütscher
and Irish Minister of Finance Brian Lenihan signed a tax information exchange
agreement (TIEA), which is expected to bring into force in 2010 the text initialed in September 2009.
The treaty, which follows the OECD Model Tax Agreement, will provide for the
exchange of information upon request to aid investigations carried out by the tax authorities of the respective countries in cases of tax crimes and in civil tax matters. The agreement
is expected to enter into force from 2010, provided the two countries complete
their individual ratifications procedures by year-end.
"Today's signing is another consistent step on Liechtenstein's path of
international cooperation in tax matters. With this step, we are also intensifying
our relations with Ireland," said Tschütscher.
In addition to concluding the agreement, Liechtenstein and Ireland have
agreed to continue talks on closer cooperation between the two countries. The
goal is to conclude a double taxation agreement as soon as possible.
On March 12, 2009, Liechtenstein recognized the OECD standard on tax cooperation
as binding. Since then, Liechtenstein has already signed various OECD-compliant
TIEAs and double taxation agreements,
including with the United States, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Luxembourg.
Already at the beginning of the year, Liechtenstein agreed to implementation
of the OECD standard as part of the multilateral EU Anti-Fraud Agreement and
thus with all 27 member States of the EU. At the bilateral level, the Liechtenstein
government is currently negotiating with other countries on OECD-compliant tax
agreements.
