IASB Introduces Temporary Relief Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes in Response to OECD’s International Tax Reform

Dawgen Global Steers Global Tax Planning and Compliance

In an era of unprecedented economic interdependence, multinational companies have long grappled with the complexities of international taxation. A significant step towards alleviating this complexity came in the form of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s (OECD) international tax reform, more specifically, the Pillar Two model rules introduced in December 2021.

The Pillar Two rules are a groundbreaking international tax policy development aimed at curbing tax base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS). The rules propose a global minimum tax rate of 15%, thereby reducing incentives for multinational companies to shift profits to low-tax jurisdictions. More than 135 countries, representing over 90% of global GDP, have endorsed these rules, signaling a sea-change in international taxation.

To adapt to this pivotal shift, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) has announced amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes. These amendments, designed to offer companies temporary relief from accounting for deferred taxes arising from the new global tax rules, signify a critical step in harmonizing financial accounting with the new tax landscape.

The amendments introduce two key changes:

  1. A temporary exception to the accounting for deferred taxes arising from jurisdictions implementing the Pillar Two model rules. This is designed to promote consistency in financial statements, easing the transition into the new tax environment.
  2. The introduction of targeted disclosure requirements to enhance investor understanding of a company’s exposure to income taxes arising from the reform, particularly before legislation implementing these rules takes effect.

Dawgen Global, an internationally recognized provider of tax planning and compliance services, is at the forefront of this transition. Dr. Dawkins Brown, Executive Chairman of Dawgen Global, commended the IASB’s initiative, noting, “These amendments present a strategic opportunity to navigate the new tax realities. At Dawgen Global, we are committed to providing our clients with the necessary guidance and tools to adapt to these changes, ensuring the integrity of their financial reporting.”
