Many other countries have formally indicated their interest in implementing GMT effective from 2024 or 2025.

GMT Compliance is Complex

Considering that multinationals need to collate data from 150+ sources to ensure GMT compliance, end-to-end automation in tax processes is essential. Additionally, effective knowledge management for adherence to evolving BEPS Pillar Two standards is critical.

The 2026 Fallacy

Surprisingly, many businesses feel they have enough time to start working towards GMT implementation due to the Transitional Safe Harbor provisions. What they fail to register is that it is applicable only till December 2026, a deadline merely 3 years away. A duration insufficient for businesses to integrate complexities of GMT implementation in their tax technology, unless they start NOW.

Key Takeaways

This whitepaper – Embracing the Corporate Global Minimum Tax: A Call to Action for Finance Leaders – highlights how the GMT rules & guidelines issued by OECD affect the laws being framed by each country and call for compliance and readiness now. 

To be future ready, multinationals enterprises need to start understanding and adhering to these requirements diligently.
