“Since the first edition of the Global Transfer Pricing Guide in 2006, we have seen tremendous enthusiasm for this useful summary, especially in terms of how the rules differ from country to country,” said Joseph Fay Viota, Chair of the Tax Special Interest Group at the time the guide was conceived and whose firm, UHY Fay & Co. has published a comprehensive manual on transfer pricing in Spain. “Having a guide that our member firms and clients can consult is a big help in demystifying transfer pricing and understanding what is involved in compliance,” offered Johannes Bitzer of Dr. Langenmayr GmbH in Munich, Germany.
“In meeting with multinational firms, one of the first topics to come up is transfer pricing and how UHY can assist with comprehensive advice across borders,” said Klaus Oehring, National Director of Transfer Pricing for UHY Advisors TX, LLC in Houston. This guide provides an overview of the governing statutes, how key concepts such as ‘arm’s length pricing’ are applied and the documentation required to be prepared and submitted to the tax authorities. “Transfer pricing has proved a very important area of planning as well as compliance for companies investing in Brazil, where the rules are notable for their differences from those developed by the OECD, and which are highlighted in the guide,” commented Diego Moreira of UHY Moreira in Brazil.
“This updated guide reflects the commitment of UHY International member firms to outstanding cross-border tax advice and offers the possibility to connect with experts in the subject matter in each country, who are identified in the guide, “concluded John Wolfgang, Chair of UHY International.
