Reporting has become more demanding

What is Pillar Two?

Pillar Two tries to end the race to the bottom for tax rates between countries. The rules aim to establish a global minimum corporate income tax rate of 15% for large multinationals. Pillar Two will have a substantial impact on compliance requirements and existing processes.

The new rules require companies to calculate whether additional taxes are due. To do this, tax departments need to calculate their income and taxes for Pillar Two purposes. These differ compared to the regular GAAP, statutory and tax definitions. Over 250 required data points have been identified to make these calculations. Calculations are similar to tax provisioning and require advanced tax accounting knowledge.

With a pending enactment on 31 December 2023, companies need to be ready to make the calculations. This ambitious planning requires tax departments to act quickly, change software systems and start identifying and collecting the necessary data within the organization.
