Today, 7 political parties reached an agreement on the formation of a new Belgian government (the so-called Vivaldi government).
While the last edits are being made to the agreement, the broad outline is becoming clear. The agreement mentions the intention for a relance and investment plan of 4.7 bln EUR including measures with important social accents. To provide the necessary budgetary room for this plan, some important tax measures are part of the agreement.
A first important measure relates to the taxation of digitalised companies and the introduction of a minimum tax for businesses. Belgium will constructively support the international initiatives at EU and OECD level in respect of the Pillars and taxation of the digital economy. International agreement is preferred but if no action is taken at international level by 2023, the intention is to proceed with the necessary measures unilaterally.
