It is now mandatory for businesses to prepare the Transfer Pricing (TP) documentation, if certain conditions are met. Non-compliance with the TP Documentation Rules will effect a costly penalty of $10,000 per offence, to the taxpayer.
Additionally, the recent onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to further updates to the transfer pricing guidelines (e.g., IRAS issued FAQs in September 2020, and OECD’s guidance in December 2020). It is therefore necessary to prepare the FY 2020 documentation with utmost care and compliance with the transfer pricing guidance.
This Masterclass Programme is specifically designed to give Finance and Tax Professionals a practical and in-depth understanding of the intricacies involved in preparing and defending transfer pricing documentation.
