Pillar Two.
Play by the rules
The ARKK Automation Platform
takes care of the toughest tax
and compliance demands.
Pillar Two is part of the global tax reform initiative led by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the G20.
The Pillar Two tax regime aims to establish a global minimum Effective Tax Rate (ETR) of 15%, although this figure is expected to increase in time. Pillar Two applies to the cross-border profits of large multinational corporations that have a "significant economic footprint" across the world.
Does it affect me?
Pillar Two rules will apply to multinational enterprises (MNEs) with consolidated revenues of over €750m in two of the past four years, for accounting periods beginning on or after 31 December 2023. These MNEs will be subject to a minimum ETR of 15% in all jurisdictions in which they operate. These rules apply to both public and private businesses.
What do I need to do?
You'll be required to gather and report on up to 400 data points in each jurisdiction you operate to comply with the three main sections of the GloBE Information Return (GIR).
The GIR is a key component of the OECD's Pillar Two tax framework. It's designed to provide tax authorities with detailed information about the global operations, income, taxes paid and effective tax rates of MNEs.
What's the deadline?
Pillar Two applies to qualifying businesses for financial periods beginning on or after 31st December 2024. Most businesses will have made a disclosure for the financial period ending 31st December 2023 detailing the material effects of Pillar Two on the business, based on the safe harbour analysis they have already undertaken.
