Getting the Deal Through: Tax Controversy 2021

Richard Jeens is the contributing editor of the 8th edition of this publication which summarises the framework for tax disputes in fifteen different jurisdictions, including the US and the UK. Richard Jeens, Dominic Robertson and Charles Osborne are authors of the UK chapter.

Surveying the general tax landscape this year, it is clear that COVID-19 has presented significant challenges for taxpayers and tax professionals alike. While many organisations and tax professionals have focused on the immediate response to COVID-19 and how best to support impacted businesses, our experience and the contributions in this edition suggest there is far greater scope for tax-related controversy going forward as tax authorities look for means of restoring public finances. Four main themes stand out: paying a ‘fair share’, digital tax, information tracking and enforcement.
