Taiwan’s Ministry of Finance (MOF) is currently monitoring developments in countries of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and observing the progress of major countries in adopting the GloBE Rules. In the meantime, the MOF is evaluating options for adjusting Taiwan's minimum tax and considering whether to introduce a qualified domestic minimum top-up tax system and GloBE Rules that align with international standards, along with its implementation schedule. On 28 August 2024, the MOF announced the draft amendment to the “Basic Tax Rate on Business Income,” incorporating the concept of the threshold for the GloBE Rules into the domestic Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) regime as the first step. Starting from 2025, multinational enterprise groups that meet the applicable threshold will have their entities in Taiwan subject to AMT at a rate of 15%. At this event our guest speakers will give a briefing on Taiwan’s implementation plan for Pillar Two of GloBE Rules and progress made to date.
