Amendment 149 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 8
(8) Taxable revenues should be reduced by business expenses and certain other items. Deductible business expenses should normally include all costs relating to sales and expenses linked to the production, maintenance and securing of income. To support innovation in the economy and modernise the internal market, deductions should be provided for research and development costs relating to expenses on staff, subcontractors, agency workers and freelancers, including super- deductions, and those should be fully expensed in the year incurred (with the exception of immovable property). Small starting companies without associated enterprises which are particularly innovative (a category which will in particular cover start-ups) should also be supported through enhanced super- deductions for research and development costs. In order to ensure legal certainty, there should also be a list of non-deductible expenses. A clear definition of costs of research and development is needed to avoid misuse of the deductions.

Proposal for a directive
Article 5 – paragraph 2 a (new)
2a. If a taxpayer resident in one jurisdiction provides access to or offers a digital platform such as an electronic application, database, online marketplace, storage room or offers search engine or advertising services on a website or in an electronic application, this taxpayer shall be deemed to have a permanent establishment in a Member State other than the jurisdiction in which it is resident for tax purposes if the total amount of revenue of the taxpayer or associated enterprise due to remote transactions generated from aforementioned digital platforms in the non-resident jurisdiction exceeds EUR 5 000 000 per year. Furthermore, to determine a significant and sustained digital presence, the Commission shall be empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 66 to lay down technical standards for the following digital factors: (a) the number of registered individual users per month that are domiciled in a Member State other than the jurisdiction in which it is resident for tax purposes who logged in or visited the taxpayer's digital platform; (b) the number of digital contracts concluded with customers or users that are domiciled in the non-resident jurisdiction in a taxable year; (c) the volume of digital content collected by the taxpayer in a taxable year. If on top of the revenue based factor, on or more of the three digital factors above as defined by the Commission are applicable for a taxpayer in the relevant Member State, the taxpayer shall be deemed to have a permanent establishment in that Member State. The tax payer shall be required to disclose the relevant information laid down in this article to the tax authorities.
