Get in touchOn 25 June 2018, the most recent amendments to the Directive on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation (Directive 2018/822 of 25 May 2018, i.e. “DAC6”) entered into force. These changes introduced mandatory disclosure requirements for intermediaries and taxpayers.
EU member states had until 31 December 2019 to implement the new rules, which entered into force on 1 July 2020. However, EU member states were allowed to defer the reporting deadlines by 6 months in view of the pandemic. Whilst most EU countries deferred the reporting deadlines by 6 months, Finland and Germany decided to stick to the initial reporting deadlines. Please see our blog for further information about the reporting deadlines.
Here are some examples of how Swiss companies could be affected by these new rules:
Pharmaceutical group
Swiss bank
Swiss trading company
