PwC has issued Worldwide Tax Summaries-Corporate Taxes 2010/11, a compendium of corporate tax rates and rules in 139 countries worldwide. The country summaries, written by local PwC firm tax specialists, include information about changes in legislation, residency, gross income, deductions, tax credits, tax administration and other tax-related, historical and economic data.
“Tax managers in businesses that trade or operate across a number of different countries need to keep tabs of varying tax rates and rules in multiple jurisdictions and be aware of changes,” said Richard Collier-Keywood, vice chairman Tax for the PwC network.
“Using the unmatched resources of PwC’s worldwide network of tax professionals, we are able to track the latest information about and put world’s taxes at their fingertips.”
“As we continue to enhance our reputation as an international financial services centre of repute and as more Maltese businesses seek to expand their activities beyond our shores, information concerning tax regimes across the world is of increasing relevance locally”, added Kevin Valenzia, Territory Senior Partner and leader of Tax Services at PricewaterhouseCoopers Malta.
In addition to the printed volume, PwC has also revamped its free online version of the summaries at www.pwc.com/taxsummaries, where users can search for information on 20 categories of corporate and individual tax information.
The online version is refreshed as necessary and each web page dated as of the latest revision. There is also a listing of tax specialists at PwC member firms around the world who can offer advice and support.
