What does the ratification of the Multilateral Instrument mean for SA?
The Multilateral Instrument (MLI), or to give it its full name, the Multilateral Convention to Implement Tax Treaty Related Measures to Prevent Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS), is a multilateral treaty (agreement) developed by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), with the support of the G20, to update the international tax rules through the implementation of a series of tax treaty measures without the need for countries to separately renegotiate each of their existing tax treaties.
