Bezpečné prístavy v oblasti prevodních cien so zameraním na rozvojové štáty
Molnárová, Lucia
The issue of transfer pricing is currently one of the most significant tax probems, which needs to be confronted by multinational enterprises and tax authorities all over the world. The determination of transfer prices that is based on the application of the arm´s length principle, together with the administration and control of transfer pricing is often complicated, time-consuming and costly process. Especially for developing countries, many of which experience difficulties with col-lection data and their analysis due to the lack of information regarding comaparable transactions. For this reason, developing countries should consider using the safe harbour concept, at least for smaller taxpayers or in a case of less complicated transactions. This thesis focuses on proposal of safe harbour for selected develo-ping countries in Asia.

140 Transfer prices: meaning and definition from constitutional law perspective Abstract The thesis deals with the problem of the definition of transfer prices in the substantive tax law, which in general terms it puts in connection with the constitutional requirements arising from the theory of law and normative formation. Thus, the basic grounds for the regulation of transfer pricing in Act No. 586/1992 Coll., on Income Taxes and the OECD Model Double Tax Convention as primary sources of law, legislative definition of this area in domestic and international tax law are defined. These are further elaborated into the detailed level of the methodology of determining the transfer price, which follows from the Instruction of the General Tax Directorate D - 34 and the OECD Transfer Pricing Guideline, and are also subjected to a critical examination in terms of their legal bindingness, position in the legal system, but also from the perspective of the rule of law maxim in the sense of the clarity of the law and its predictability. On the basis of the submitted argumentation, it is concluded that none of the above-mentioned documents defining the procedure by which the transfer price is to be determined is a binding source of law a limine and will always constitute only a non-binding instruction or guide to its...

The problematics of transfer pricing in Czech and International tax law
Valeš, Ondřej ; Kotáb, Petr (advisor) ; Kohajda, Michael (referee)
The problematics of transfer pricing in Czech and International tax law Constant globalization leads to the boom of business and property-related companies, which we call multinational. Multinational companies carry out so-called intra-company transactions within their group of companies under different conditions than they would in normal business. We call these transactions dependent, because they are carried out between affiliates, in an environment that is not competitive but related. Transfer pricing issues are usually associated with tax optimization because, with the help of these transactions, multinationals are able to achieve a lower tax burden. Aggressive tax optimization prevents proper transfer pricing for intra-company transactions. Transfer pricing of intra-company transactions is set up properly if they are in line with the arm length's principle, which in its own way attempts to simulate a competitive environment. The aim of this work is to outline the regulation of transfer pricing in Czech and International tax law and to analyse the problems of the regulation. In Czech law, the transfer pricing is mainly regulated in the Income Tax Act and in the non-binding instructions of the Ministry of Finance, which rely heavily on international regulation. At international level, the...

Analysis of transfer mispricing of commodity exports in African countries
Zachar, Martin ; Janský, Petr (advisor) ; Kracík, Jiří (referee)
Governments around the world are burdened by what is estimated to be a $160 billion annual tax loss stemming from transfer mispricing. Developing countries may be even more susceptible to this phenomenon due to their lax reporting and regulatory standards. However, research done to date on transfer mispricing with regards to developing countries is very limited. This paper investigates commodity transactions between selected African countries and the world for 2008-2009, looking for pricing anomalies in both absolute terms and in relation to global mispricing averages. The data was examined using linear regression models, volume-based analysis and case study analyses. While the former two did not find convincing evidence of substantial price distortions, the latter uncovered several anomalies that may point to mispricing. These results point to the fact that transfer mispricing occurring in developing countries is in line with that of the rest of the world.

Issues of Transfer Pricing
Radikovská, Daniela ; Novotný, Petr (advisor) ; Vondráčková, Pavlína (referee)
ISSUES OF TRANSFER PRICING Transfer pricing has been often-discussed topic in recent years which is unlikely to change in the upcoming years. Given the great importance of transfer pricing in international tax planning, as well as in so called aggressive tax planning, it is a priority for states to set transfer pricing rules based on the arm's length principle in such a way that untaxed profits are not transferred from the jurisdictions where it was generated. Although this is a tax issue concerning the direct taxation, it shall be regulated at least in a coordinated manner by most countries in the world, as the international overlap is the greatest danger to state treasuries. From the perspective of taxpayers, it is often very difficult to meet all obligations regarding the setting of transfer pricing pursuant the arm's length principle, but it can be pointed out that a sufficiently clearly specified rules may be in favor of the taxpayers, because unjustified price manipulation between the related parties may cause some distortion of the functioning of the market. The main purpose of this thesis is to provide a comprehensive overview of transfer pricing issues from the perspective of Czech legislation, especially the Income Tax Act and instructions issued by the Ministry of Finance and the...
