A launch ceremony for International Survey on Revenue Administration (ISORA) was held at 10th Meeting of the OECD Forum on Tax Administration (FTA) in Beijing, attended by representatives of CIAT, IMF, OECD and IOTA.
The survey is now ready to be completed by participating tax administrations, and the partnering organisations are in ongoing contact with countries about the procedure for data reporting, available assistance, deadlines etc.
The launch was reflected in Communiqué of the FTA: ‘This is a milestone in international collaboration, cost reduction and efficiency ultimately delivering a comparative data set for over 150 tax administrations from around the world. Making use of this new platform, we launched the 2016 international survey on tax administration which will be published in the FTA’s Tax Administration Series, providing comparative information and analysis on tax administrations across 56 advanced and emerging economies, including all OECD, EU, and G20 members.’
