​DAC6 & the MDRs

The Amendment to Directive 2011/16/EU on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation (known colloquially as “DAC6”) is the EU version of the OECD’s Mandatory Disclosure Requirements (“MDRs”) for intermediary reporting on so-called “aggressive” tax planning arrangements with a cross-border component. DAC6 specifies sets of characteristics indicative of aggressive tax planning–labelled “Hallmarks”–and compels the disclosure of any cross-border transactions or other activities evidencing these Hallmarks. DAC6 mandates that for any reportable arrangements, the EU intermediaries involved in the transaction–such as tax advisors, lawyers, accountants and fiduciaries–or the taxpayers affected by it (if no intermediary qualifies) must:
  • Disclose specified information
  • About the arrangement and the parties involved in it (including both other intermediaries and clients)
  • To their local competent authority
  • Within 30 days
  • For exchange on an automatic basis with other EU member states
​
Retroactive reports for reportable cross-border arrangements (RCBAs) executed between 25 June 2018 and 30 June 2020 are due in bulk shortly after the onset of the regime in each EU Member State.

Millen Tax & Legal offers an array of DAC6- and MDR-related services, including:

  • Evaluation of overall operations to determine potential intersections with DAC6/MDRs regimes
  • Review and refinement of policies, procedures and related systems to cope with DAC6/MDR reporting
  • Analysis of specific arrangements for reportability
  • Support in report preparation and submission
  • Preparation of client communication materials
