USTR Investigation on Digital Services Taxes in Europe

Описание: On June 5, the United States Trade Representative (USTR) launched a Section 301 trade investigation into digital services taxes adopted or being considered by the European Union (EU), United Kingdom, India, Italy, Spain, and five other nations. Omar Nashashibi, of the Franklin Partnership in Washington, D.C., analyzes how the actions could lead to tariffs similar to those on France in 2019 and to those imposed on imports from China. The U.S. action is in response to efforts by the EU and other countries to impose a tax on revenue derived in their jurisdictions by firms such as Facebook, Amazon, Apple, and Google. The U.S. is accepting comments on their proposed action through July 15.
