Targeted Companies σαν την Alphabet και το Facebook: Οι εταιρείες ψηφιακών τεχνολογιών που λειτουργούν στην Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση θα μπορούσαν να επιβαρυνθούν με ένα φόρο του 3% επί των ακαθάριστων εσόδων, σύμφωνα με σχετική πρόταση της Ευρωπαϊκής Επιτροπής που he published the Bloomberg.
Previous plans suggested a levy in the range of 2 to 6 percent, as the countries of the EU are exploring new ways to tax big tech companies like Alphabet and Facebook.
According to the new plan, technology companies with global total revenues over 750 million (920 million dollars) and total taxable annual revenue from digital service provision in the EU over 50 million will be subject to the new levy.
The levy will be increased according to advertising revenue, revenue from users, συνδρομητικές υπηρεσίες αλλά και τα έσοδα από την πώληση δεδομένων σε τρίτους.
The European Commission expects to raise €5 billion a year from the new tax, according to draft proposals seen by the Financial Times. The plan, which is expected to be proposed on March 21, will need a unanimous vote support and by the 28 EU members to enter into force.
The levy is not high enough, French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire said earlier this month:
"It's a starting point. I prefer a law that will be implemented very quickly and not endless negotiations. ”
EU countries like Ireland with low tax rates could vote against the upcoming bill as it is currently the favorite country of technology companies and of course it would not want to share it with the rest of the European Union.
