Long Overdue

DIHK Head of Department for Economic Policy and Finance, SME Affairs, Rainer Kambeck on the package of measures for European corporate taxation planned by the EU Commission for June 24

23.06.2026 - "The announced simplification of the European corporate tax system is a long overdue step toward strengthening Europe's competitiveness. Companies urgently need less bureaucracy, more legal certainty, and practical regulations instead of increasingly complex guidelines. It is particularly important that dispute resolution and arbitration procedures are made accessible and accelerated for more taxpayers. Double taxation and lengthy tax disputes tie up resources and weaken the international competitiveness of European companies. The goal must be a simpler, more reliable, and more unified tax environment that promotes investment and provides greater relief to companies in the European single market."
