Part 2: Joint Seminar on the Convention on Mutual Administrative Assistance in Tax Matters (MAAC) and Practical Training Exchange of Information on Request (EOIR)

Joint initiative of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), Australian Taxation Office (ATO), Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD), the World Bank Group (WBG), New Zealand Inland Revenue Department (NZIRD) and the Pacific Islands Tax Administrators Association (PITAA).

This event will allow participants to grow their capacity in EOI, with a focus on MAAC, as the most advanced international legal instrument for international tax cooperation and the key tool for delivering the global tax transparency agenda. The seminar will allow participants to be familiar with the key features of the MAAC, the process to becoming a party to the MAAC, and ways to take advantage of the MAAC to better fight tax evasion and protect tax revenues.

The second part of the event will focus on the institutional arrangements for the effective implementation of EOI on request (EOIR). The training will provide participants improved awareness of the steps necessary to organize an EOI Unit and manage EOI processes, and will help participants plan improvements in implementing EOIR in practice.
