President of the Organizing Committee

We are delighted to invite you to our 75th Congress of the IFA in Cancún, Mexico.

Our congress will take place from October 22 to 26, 2023, in the heart of the Mayan Riviera, where we will put together the latest scientific topics, as well as a variety of social and cultural activities providing a unique opportunity to enrich us personally and professionally.

Our venue will be the Moon Palace Arena Convention Center, an extraordinary and safe complex that provides a great opportunity for excellent business interaction. International tax practitioners, judges, adjudicators, academics, and representatives of numerous governmental and non-governmental organizations will have a unique forum to exchange, debate, meet and interact with friends, colleagues, sponsors, and exhibitors.

Prepare to explore Cancun and the Mayan world and get immersed in the cradle of the Mayan civilization, rich in history and irresistible nature; it is a paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers. So whether before or after our IFA Congress, take time to enjoy our world-famous beaches, culture, amenities, and nightlife as Cancun offers a wide range of activities for visitors of all ages, from a splendorous landscape to a visit to the mystical ruins.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Cancun!

About IFA


The International Fiscal Association (IFA) was established in 1938, with its headquarters in the Netherlands. It is the only non-governmental and non-sectoral international organization dealing with fiscal matters.

Its purpose is the study and development of international and comparative law with respect to public finance, specifically regarding fiscal law as well as the financial and economic aspects of taxation.

IFA seeks to achieve these objectives through its Annual Congresses, the scientific publications relating thereto, as well as through scientific research. Although the operations of the IFA are essentially scientific in character, the subjects selected take into account current fiscal developments and changes in local legislation.

IFA has grown to nearly 13,500 members from 111 countries where 72 branches have been established. Direct membership is possible in countries where there is not an IFA Branch.

Along with the increasing globalization of the world's economies, international tax issues have become more numerous and of greater importance. Since the end of World War II IFA has played an essential role both in the development of principles of international taxation and in providing possible solutions in their implementation.

IFA has been able to achieve a great success, since it has offered the necessary forum to experts belonging from both the private and public sectors, including courts, academics, governmental and non-governmental organizations, where opinions on topics of international taxation can be exchanged with respect for each others background and responsibilities.

Scientific Topics


Monday 23 October 2023

The panel will review arrangements to shift of losses among entities in a multinational group to optimize tax planning as well as tools deployed by tax authorities to combat them. In particular, the panel will cover the migration of assets or companies with built-in losses to other jurisdictions, the duplication of losses in different countries, the use of transfer pricing arrangements to transport profits or losses (through the migration of intangibles or otherwise), techniques to refresh expiring tax attributes and the use of financial arrangements to base erode a high-tax jurisdiction while creating stateless income. The panel will explore specific tools to implement these arrangements, including the use of dual resident companies, cross-border reorganizations, hybrid instruments and hybrid entities. The panel will also consider the use of “soft doctrines” to attack these arrangements as well as the impact of Pillar 2.

Chair: Richard Vann (Australia)


Now that 13 years have passed since the finalisation of the AOA, it is time to take stock of its impact on tax treaties in general and the effect of the UN rejection of the AOA on treaty negotiation and application. After laying out the background and the current state of play in treaty negotiation of the AOA and the UN rejection, the seminar will look at various aspects of the issue: deemed payments, limitations on the functionally separate enterprise approach under the AOA and their relevant to the UN Model, and the impact of the change in direction under BEPS on both the AOA and UN Model.

Chair: Armando Lara Yaffar (Mexico)


The seminar has the purpose to discuss the tax policy responses that have emerged after the post- pandemic era, as well as the geopolitical events that have affected economies, for which the creation of windfall taxes, the ways in which green energies have been supported, the responses against tax evasion and the challenges of tax administrations to be able to correctly implement these policies will be discussed, among other topics.

YIN Seminar: Consumption Taxes and the Digital Economy: Where Are We Now ?
Tuesday 24 October 2023

Chair: Hon. Marshall Rothstein, CC, KC (Canada)


Good faith is a fundamental legal principle in international law and most domestic legal systems worldwide, both civil and common law. The meaning of good faith varies across different contexts and jurisdictions, which can be a challenge in the international context where consistency is desirable. In the domestic tax context, good faith can be relevant to the relationship between taxpayers and tax authorities. In the international tax context, the good faith principle applies to dealings between contracting States, in particular to tax treaties and their interpretation. It is similarly relevant to dealings between taxpayers and the tax authority of a contracting State. This panel will explore various issues, focusing on the history and foundation of the principle of good faith in the international context; the application of this principle in the tax treaty context, including potential remedies for breaches; and the application of this principle against the background of selected current issues in international tax practice and illustrated by specific case studies.

Chair: Philippe Martin (France)


Seminar C deals with forums where disputes regarding taxation are adjudicated : courts and international treaty arbitration. The mission and duties of tax adjudicators will be discussed, with an eye on the expectations of the parties and the public. Their methods and legal approach will be studied. The seminar will also discuss some difficult issues tax adjudicators may face, especially regarding tax policies pursued by States.

Chair: Natalia Quiñones Cruz (Colombia)


This seminar will discuss whether base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) has been fully addressed by the current rules or if mobility, new technologies, and new business strategies make BEPS a persistent challenge for the international tax system. The seminar will additionally address the issue of whether BEPS is the same across the globe or if it has a particular detrimental effect for the developing world. We will further explore the impact that BEPS has on corporate behaviour and the resulting complexity for taxpayers and tax administration alike. Finally, the seminar explores some options to address the issue of persistent BEPS, which range from continuing with the implementation of current rules to unitary taxation and formulary apportionment.

WIN Seminar: E-invoicing and e-reporting : a solution to help fight the VAT avoidance ?
Wednesday 25 October 2023

Chair: Porus Kaka (India)


The IFA/OECD Seminar focuses on the latest developments in the International Tax arena. The OECD’s new tax leadership will provide an update on the work currently underway at the OECD. The Panel will bring together experts from Government, academia, business and tax practitioners to discuss major International tax initiatives and developments, with a particular emphasis on OECD work in this area.

Chair: Georg Kofler (Austria)


The IFA/EU seminar will highlight the most recent and pressing developments in international tax law from the specific angle of EU law. Discussions will focus on the corporate tax agenda of the EU Commission (including Pillar Two and BEFIT), measures targeting aggressive tax planning and harmful tax competition (such as „Unshell“ and the Revised Code of Conduct), administrative cooperation and transparency, and the impact of the green transition on European taxation.

Chair: Alexander Rust (Austria)


The core focus of this seminar is the link of tax treaties with regional cooperation and explore these links with “non tax areas” The seminar will revisit the two non-discrimination rules (direct and indirect) and analyse its two constitutive elements (i.e., comparability and the existence of different treatment). Also, whether a domestic measure that is at first deemed discriminatory may be justified on the basis of BEPS and/or EU law, will be discussed.

Thursday 26 October 2023

Chair: Jonathan Schwarz (United Kingdom)


This permanent seminar at all IFA Congresses, brings the latest and most important issues that impact international taxation around the world. The main focus of this seminar will be on recent judicial decisions on key international tax topics such as tax treaties, transfer pricing and domestic tax rules with cross-border implications. The final agenda for the seminar is normally decided close to the Congress date to make sure that it is as current as possible.

Chair: Ana Claudia Utumi (Brazil)


The purpose of this panel is to examine the international tax implications, especially for multinational enterprises (MNE), to have personnel working at distance, having them relocated to other countries, or even directly hiring people that live in other countries as employees. Many of the MNEs reduced the sizes of their physical offices, showing that remote work came to stay, and not as a temporary measure.
The number of issues related to international relocations/international employees is significant. Characterisation of permanent establishment, interaction with other companies of the group to share costs/functions exercised by certain employees, taxation of cross-border services, impact of tax treaties on remuneration for the services provided by those employees, taxation on the use of digital means to allow the remote work, determination of tax residency etc.

Chair: Monique van Herksen (Netherlands)


The panel will look at transfer pricing controversy and resolution trends, and consider the impact of new developments, such as a Global Minimum Tax. The following questions will be raised: Is it time to conclude that Profit Split and TNMM are the de facto methods of choice (witness recent tax litigation) or is their application merely opportunistic depending on whose side you are on and what outcome you support? Considering this, do APAs and MAP provide adequate dispute resolution or should other (international) instruments be used? Will the Global Minimum Tax reduce transfer pricing controversy?
