Challenges and Opportunities in Implementing International Tax Standards in the Pacific

21 November 2019
Manila
Philippines

This regional event provided a platform for developing countries in the Pacific to share their successes, challenges, lessons learned and national priorities, with respect to tax transparency and EOI, UBO, and the BEPS minimum standards. It focused on national policies and strategies for ensuring the effective implementation of international standards, and also provides a setting for developing countries in the Pacific to access technical support to implement such strategies. It facilitated convergence between development partners within the region in the development of innovative support strategies that promote consistency, avoid duplication and minimize fatigue among public administrations across the Pacific.

This workshop was financed by ADB’s Regional Technical Assistance 9433: Enhancing Tax Transparency of ADB Developing Member Countries. This event was co-organized by ADB in collaboration with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes, and Pacific Islands Tax Administrators Association.
