On 2 February 2023, the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework on BEPS released technical guidance to assist governments in the local implementation of the Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (“GloBE Rules”). This should help governments to correctly apply the GloBE Rules to large Multinational Enterprises from the start of 2024. Moreover, it aims to ensure a coordinated and harmonized implementation of the GloBE Rules. The Administrative Guidance takes the form of a modification to the original version of the Commentary that was issued in March 2022.

Exactly one year after publication of the Pillar 2 Model GloBE Rules on 20 December 2021, the OECD Inclusive Framework on BEPS published an implementation package as part of its ongoing efforts to develop the Pillar 2 Implementation Framework. The Pillar 2 documents released contain (i) guidance on Safe Harbours and Penalty Relief, and (ii) public consultations on the GLoBE Information Return and Tax Certainty for the GloBE Rules.
