The OECD's base erosion and profit shifting project produced a set of measures most countries have now enacted: country-by-country reporting for large groups, master-file and local-file transfer-pricing documentation, anti-hybrid rules, interest-limitation rules, treaty anti-abuse tests and the multilateral instrument that rewrote treaties to include them. For a group above the reporting threshold, the country-by-country report allocates revenue, profit, tax and staff to every jurisdiction and is exchanged between tax authorities, who use it to pick audit targets.
The compliance task is to file the right reports in the right country — the ultimate parent normally files the country-by-country report and other entities notify — and to make sure the picture they paint is consistent with the transfer-pricing documentation and the local returns. Inconsistency between the three is what an authority reads as risk, and it is the first thing checked in an audit that starts from the report.
Does country-by-country reporting apply to our group? It applies above a consolidated-revenue threshold set by the OECD standard and enacted locally; groups below it still have the master-file and local-file documentation requirements in most countries.
Who sees the country-by-country report? The tax authority it is filed with and, through automatic exchange, every authority in a jurisdiction where the group has an entity and an exchange agreement exists; it is a risk-assessment tool, not a return.

The OECD's BEPS framework reshaped substance, treaty access and reporting: CbCR for large groups, the MLI's principal-purpose test for everyone claiming treaty benefits.
Related-party cross-border pricing must satisfy the arm's-length principle; Canada's contemporaneous documentation rules (s.247) expose undocumented positions to transfer pricing penalties once adjustments pass the statutory threshold. Engagements are quoted as a fixed fee for a defined scope, and reviews of prior-year filings are included where earlier positions affect the current one.
Covers: The local file for one entity: functional analysis, method selection with the alternatives explained, comparables with the search documented, and the results tested against the range.
What moves it up: The number of transaction types. Goods, services, royalties and financing are four analyses rather than one, and each needs its own method and its own comparables.
See this fee pageCovers: The group-level documentation and the country-by-country report, prepared so they agree with each other and with every local file in the footprint.
What moves it up: The number of jurisdictions. Each one reads the same master file, so an inconsistency anywhere is visible everywhere through information exchange.
See this fee pageCovers: A documented search: screening criteria, quantitative and qualitative filters, a manual rejection log with reasons, and the resulting range with the tested party's position in it.
What moves it up: How defensible the comparables have to be. A study intended for a filing and a study intended to survive an audit are different pieces of work.

BEPS Compliance & Country-by-Country Reporting starts at a fixed fee quoted before any work begins. The quote is locked at the outset and does not change mid-engagement, and you review the deliverable with us before it is filed. Compare every plan on our transparent pricing page.
At minimum: prior-year returns and notices of assessment, your bank and credit-card statements for the fiscal period, payroll records if you have employees, and GST/HST filings. We send a checklist tailored to your situation after the first call to our 24-hour helpline.
Most engagements are completed within 3 to 5 business days once your documents are complete. Catch-up work covering multiple years takes longer, and we tell you the realistic timeline before you commit rather than after.
We respond on your behalf at no extra charge for any return we prepared. Every figure we file is supported by documentation retained in your file, which is what turns a CRA review from a crisis into correspondence. See how our CRA audit support works.
Yes. The late-filing penalty is 5% of the balance owing plus 1% of that balance for each full month the return is late, to a maximum of 12 months (CRA, 2025 tax year). Interest is what compounds, daily, on top. We prioritise catch-up work and, where eligible, file under the CRA's Voluntary Disclosures Program to reduce penalties.
Yes. We work with clients wherever they live, from our offices in India, the USA, Canada and the UAE, and your location does not change the price or the service. Browse our coverage by country and region to find yours.
We work across construction, healthcare, e-commerce, professional services, restaurants, real estate, transportation, technology and non-profits, each with its own deduction profile and the points tax authorities scrutinise. See all industries we serve.
Software applies the rules you told it about. It does not ask whether a treaty caps the withholding on that payment, whether the foreign credit was claimed in the right country, whether an information return was due on an account that earned nothing, or whether your related-party pricing is documented. Those are the questions that move the number on a cross-border file.
Our beps compliance & country-by-country reporting services include complete filing, compliance management, and strategic advice customized to Canadian tax laws.
You can start by calling our 24-hour helpline on +1 (416) 619-0068 or sending the form. We will review your files, provide a fixed quote, and start working immediately.
Five, in two groups. Three compare transactions: comparable uncontrolled price, resale price, and cost plus. Two compare profits: the transactional net margin method, and profit split. The OECD asks for the most appropriate method on the facts rather than a fixed hierarchy; the United States applies a best-method rule to similar effect. Selection is itself a documented judgment, and a method chosen without recording why is a weak position under audit. See our transfer pricing work.
Comparable uncontrolled price. You find the price charged in a comparable transaction between unrelated parties and test your intercompany price against it. It is the most direct of the methods and the most persuasive when it fits, because it compares like with like at the transaction level. Its limit is data: close comparables exist for commodities and standard products, rarely for bespoke services or unique intangibles, which is where the margin-based methods take over. See our transfer pricing work.

The group had grown past the point where the reporting obligation could be ignored and nobody had owned the question. Work started with the consolidation list, because two entities everyone thought were associates were in fact consolidated, and a dormant company had been left out entirely. Headcount and tangible asset figures had to be defined on a consistent basis across jurisdictions before anything could be filled in. The engagement produced a filed report, notifications lodged in each jurisdiction that required one, and a written definition of every data point so next year's figures are prepared the same way.
The parent had filed its report properly and assumed that discharged the group. It did not. Several jurisdictions where subsidiaries operated required a separate notification naming the filing entity, on their own dates, and two of those dates had passed. The work was jurisdiction by jurisdiction: what each one required, whether late notification carried a penalty regime of its own, and how each was corrected. The engagement produced the outstanding notifications filed with an explanation of the delay, and a calendar that tracks notification dates separately from the report date.
The ultimate parent sat in a jurisdiction with no exchange relationship in force with one of the group's main operating countries, so filing once at the top would have left that country without the report and the local subsidiary carrying the obligation itself. The work was mapping the exchange relationships actually in force for the year concerned, then comparing local filing against nominating a surrogate. The engagement produced a surrogate parent nomination, the notifications that support it, and a record of which relationships were checked and when, to be reviewed before each filing.
A group's report had been assembled from management data that did not tie to the statutory accounts filed in each country. Nobody had reconciled the two, and the differences were the kind an authority notices. The work was building a bridge, for each jurisdiction, between the source used for the report and the numbers filed locally, then deciding which source the group would use consistently from then on. The engagement produced a documented reconciliation held with the report, one stated data source, and corrections in the jurisdictions where the local figures were themselves wrong.
An authority opened a review of a subsidiary's margins after the group's report showed profit concentrated away from where its staff were. The group had prepared its pricing documentation contemporaneously, which changed the nature of the exchange entirely: the response was a covering letter and existing files rather than a reconstruction under time pressure. The work consisted of aligning what the documentation said with what the report showed, and explaining the part of the pattern the data cannot carry — functions performed under contract by people employed elsewhere. The engagement produced a closed review and an annual documentation cycle.
The group was moving a financing function and asked for the tax analysis. We also modelled how the move would appear in the following year's report, because a jurisdiction acquiring revenue and profit without acquiring people or assets is the pattern these reports exist to surface. Two variants of the plan presented very differently for the same commercial outcome. The engagement produced a written comparison of how each would read, the substance each would need to be defensible, and pricing documentation drafted alongside the restructuring rather than after it.
The obligation sits with the group and the filing can fall on a surrogate where the parent's jurisdiction does not exchange. Establishing who files where comes before preparing anything.
Read how this one runsAn administrative waiver can remove a first failure where the filing and payment record supports it, and it is spent once used. Whether to claim it now or keep it for a heavier year is a judgement made with the whole file in view.
Read how this one runsAll case studies — every published engagement in one place.
Strategy and compliance for income, assets and families spread across borders.
Holding structures live or die on treaty access, beneficial ownership and substance — the MLI's principal-purpose test now sits over every arrangement.
A holding structure is only as good as its reporting. Foreign affiliates, accrued passive income and distributions each carry their own return, and the penalties on those attach to the form rather than to any tax being owed — so a structure that saves tax can still cost money if the information returns are late.
