   Añadido: (1 a) In 1975, the Commission tabled a proposal to minimise the differences between Member States' corporate tax rates. Under the proposal, Member States could still choose their own corporate tax rate, but that rate could “not be lower than 45 % nor higher than 55 %”. Due to a lack of support from Member States, the proposal was withdrawn.

   Añadido: (1 b) In 2016, the Commission tabled an altered 'rebooted' proposal for a common corporate tax base (CCCTB). A common European corporate tax base would serve as a single rulebook on how companies should calculate their overall profit in the Union. After calculating a common tax base, a company active in more than one Member State could add up all the profits and losses of its entities in the different Member States to work out its total net profit or loss for the entire Union (consolidation). The company's taxable profits would then be allocated between the respective company entities, using an apportionment formula (formulary apportionment), with the profits being divided on the basis of three equally weighted factors (labour, tangible assets and sales). Each Member State would then tax the allocated shares of the company's profits at its own national corporate tax rate. The 2016 CCCTB proposal eventually met the same fate as its 2011 predecessor. The Council was not able to reach unanimous support and while the Council had initially paused negotiations to provide room for the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework's reform of corporate tax rules, the 2016 CCCTB proposal was withdrawn in September 2023.

   … rise to complexity in tax compliance and leads to unfair competition for Eliminado: businesses. Añadido: businesses, especially because MNEs could use the different tax systems in order to engage in aggressive tax planning, resulting in SMEs having to pay a higher amount of taxes proportionally to their profits. That has become more evident as globalisation and digitalisation of the economy … long procedures characterised by unpredictability and inconsistency along with high compliance costs. Añadido: Most importantly, it leads to tax avoidance practices by MNEs.

   Añadido: (7 a) The Union should actively engage in international negotiations with a view to promoting the global harmonisation of rules and the allocation of taxing rights based on a formula reflecting tangible factors such as labour, assets and sales. The ongoing negotiations within the United Nations on international tax cooperation are a unique and timely opportunity in that regard. In that context, the abstention of several Member States is regrettable and they should be strongly encouraged to participate constructively and proactively in those discussions.

   Añadido: (7 b) In order to avoid the delocalisation of profits outside the Union by MNEs, BEFIT groups should also declare their global profit at the international level. The formula used in this Directive would then also be used to compare the profits originally declared in the Union with the ones that would have been declared if the formula was applied to the global profits of the BEFIT group. If the corrected profits are higher than the declared profits, the Union will tax those corrected profits thanks to the formula included in this Directive.
