The OECD-STA Multilateral Tax Centre (the “MTC”) was officially inaugurated in the National Tax Institute, STA on March 14th, 2016. As the 6th OECD Multilateral Centre in the world and the 1st in a non-OECD country, the MTC is designed to provide training programs for tax officials from developing countries, enhance mutual understanding and trust among tax authorities of different countries, and promote consensus on international taxation rules. The MTC also offers an avenue for tax disputes resolution and gives support to Chinese corporations’ outward investment. In the context of G20 tax reforms and changes in international taxation rules, China will actively help developing countries with their capacity-building in taxation areas, and work with other countries to build international taxation governance framework and enable a sound environment for global economic cooperation.
