Tax Administration Responses to COVID-19: Recovery Period Planning
Download the reference document |
About
In order to help inform tax administrations’ decision-making in the COVID-19 crisis, the OECD Forum on Tax Administration (FTA), in collaboration with the FTA Enterprise Risk Management Community of Interest, has drawn up this reference document which looks at some of the main issues that tax administrations may wish to consider in their planning for the recovery period from the pandemic. This may be a lengthy and potentially difficult period given the depth and scale of the economic shock and the likely continuing need for some containment measures, as well as the possibility of second waves of the virus. This is the third joint COVID-19 reference document which has been produced in cooperation with the Inter-American Center of Tax Administrations (CIAT) and the Intra-European Organisation of Tax Administrations (IOTA). This document does not make recommendations as regards particular measures as national circumstances and considerations will vary greatly.
