How to tax the Gafa, who do not pay enough taxes? France has tried to do this on its side, which annoyed the United States, but this time it is the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) that makes proposals that could put everyone agreement. The organization wants to allow states to tax companies that have digital activities on their soil, even when they do not have a seat. The goal is to tax giants of the internet where they make profits.
Currently, when a company is headquartered in Ireland and profits in France, it pays taxes in Ireland, where taxes are lower. "Tax rules have not changed for a century"explains Pascal Saint-Amans, director of the OECD Center for Tax Policy and Administration. "Business has changed for a century, you can do business in a territory without being physically present, you have to be able to tax it, it's a matter of tax justice", he demonstrates.
