Transfer Pricing
Global transfer pricing
Transfer pricing relates to all aspects of intra-group pricing arrangements between related business entities. It is particularly relevant to multinationals as they expand their operations across the world.
Changing regulations, escalating documentation requirements and penalties, and increasing audit activity globally. Never before have companies faced so much scrutiny over their transfer pricing policies.
Potential issues
- Setting and implementing a robust and defendable transfer pricing policy that complies with the arm’s length principle.
- Evidencing and supporting compliance with transfer pricing regulations, including documentation requirements, both in Ireland and abroad.
- Managing transfer prices and head office/ branch attributions accurately within your group across many jurisdictions.
- Designing intra-group business models to achieve sustainable financial and operational benefits.
- Determining how shared services between departments can help control costs, optimise your processes, and create visibility throughout your business’ value chain.
- Defending and managing challenges from tax authorities internationally.
- Increasing scrutiny from tax authorities on the pricing of intra-group financial transactions and supporting such financial transactions in this environment.
- Understanding what impact the OECD’s Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) action plan will have on your business.
Transfer pricing rules cover almost everything from sales or purchases of goods and services to intellectual property and financing transactions.
