What is TAXA3000 about?

Studying this unit will immerse you in the dynamic world of international tax which is full of rewarding career opportunities for tax professionals. Within the unit we will cover off on looking at anti-avoidance mechanisms that are employed by governments to combat international tax avoidance methods used by multinational companies and how the majority of tax authorities worldwide joined together with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) to create agreements to cease this type of avoidance behaviour. Double tax agreements play an important role in the international tax arena to who has the taxing rights of taxpayers who reside in corresponding countries, you will get to dive into some of these and see how Australian works co-operatively with other countries. Another aspect of a career in international tax is the ability to advise clients who operate international businesses therefore we will consider the structuring and use of international tax planning as we work our way through the course. Playing a major part of international tax is for advisors to act in the most ethical and socially responsible manner and we look at the consequences of not sticking to these fundamental principles. A career in taxation can lead to you working anywhere in the world if you have experience in international tax.
