Transfer Pricing PNG IRC Response Pacific Islands Tax Administrators Association 22-25 August 2011, Fiji
The transfer pricing risk • What is transfer pricing • What is the tax mischief • OECD guidelines • Legal Framework
Why respond? • Certainty of international transactions • Acceptance into international tax community • The ‘’level playing field’’ • Promoting international trade and investment
The PNG experience 2005-2010 - attempts to embed a response to transfer pricing met with limited success: • International conference and workshop participation and twinning skilling alone do not provide the answer • Time to re-think our approach
How we are responding A four year plan with three phases: • 2011: Public engagement and awareness • 2012: Risk assessment • 2013-14: Risk response – audits and other arrangements
What we are learning • Long term commitment • Resourcing • Embracing Concept • Skilling • Compliance Initiative • International Responsibilities
