Russia issues new version of draft law on BEPS Action 13 implementation

The Russian Ministry of Finance on September 6, issued a new version of the draft law setting forth new transfer pricing reporting requirements for international groups (the Draft Law). The new reporting requirements, in line with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) Action 13 Final Report (Action 13 Final Report), will apply for the 2017 financial year to international groups whose revenue totals RUB50 billion (approx. US$777 million) or more. Voluntary reporting is possible for financial years prior to 2017. The Draft Law increases the reporting requirements as compared to the previous version dated April 8.
