The challenges

ATAD II can feel complex, but here’s the good news: in the best-case scenario, you might never have to present anything to the authorities. But if they do ask, you’ll need to prove compliance—and that means having everything ready. That’s why it’s smart to get familiar with ATAD II now, especially around hybrid mismatches, local files, and intercompany transactions. A little preparation now saves a lot of hassle later!

 

 

Time

It can take a bit of time to first get up to speed on this topic and then write the report manually.

 

 

Complexity

Most tax proffesionals do not have the legal knowledge to translate the law into a report as there is no example provided by the authorities.

 

 

Error prone

Copying data manually from local files can leads to small errors slipping in your report.

 

Why can’t I just ignore this?

What happens if you don’t have the necessary documentation in your administration? While ATAD II itself doesn’t have to be filed to the tax authorities you must prove compliance during your CIT return or audit. If you can’t, you could face additional scrutiny, potential double taxation, and extra work to fix the situation. Plus, your external auditors or accountants might also request this report, so it’s best to have everything in order upfront.

Not much extra effort

Plus, since most of the required data is already in your local file and intercompany transaction records, complying with ATAD II doesn’t take much extra effort. With just a few small additional steps, it’s worth staying on the safe side rather than dealing with complications later.
