What is DAC7?

πŸ“Š DAC7 is an EU directive, effective since January 2023, that requires online platforms to collect, verify, and report seller earnings and tax information directly to local tax authorities
‍
🌍 Beyond the EU, similar digital platform reporting rules have also been adopted in the UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, making DAC7 compliance part of a global tax reporting framework
‍
πŸ’» Under DAC7, marketplaces, ride-sharing apps, rental platforms, and digital intermediaries must automatically gather seller tax IDs, payment details, and income data. This information is then reported to tax authorities to increase transparency, improve cross-border monitoring, and combat tax evasion

Why it was implemented...

Enhancing tax transparency: DAC7 aims to enhance tax transparency by ensuring that relevant tax information is shared effectively between member states. This allows tax authorities to have a comprehensive view of taxpayers' activities across borders, reducing the opportunities for tax evasion and aggressive tax planning.
‍
Combating tax avoidance and evasion: DAC7 strengthens the EU's fight against tax avoidance and evasion by establishing rules for the automatic exchange of information. This facilitates the identification of aggressive tax planning schemes and helps tax authorities take appropriate measures to counter such practices.

DAC7 is a directive adopted by the EU to improve the exchange of information and cooperation between tax authorities of member states. It builds upon the success of previous directives, such as DAC6, by expanding the scope of administrative cooperation in the field of taxation.

Consequences include penalties and fines of up to 900k euro, reputational risks and increased audits
‍

Penalties and fines: Failure to comply with DAC7 obligations may result in penalties and fines imposed by tax authorities. The severity of these penalties may vary depending on the specific provisions of national legislation.

Reputational risks:
Non-compliance with tax regulations can tarnish the reputation of businesses and individuals, leading to loss of trust among customers, partners, and stakeholders. This can have long-term negative effects on business operations and growth.

Increased scrutiny and audits:
Non-compliant entities may face increased scrutiny and audits by tax authorities, leading to additional costs, disruptions to business activities, and potential legal consequences.
