ΑΕΟΙ – Automatic Exchange of Information (DAC2)

(Beta version)

The EU Council issued EU Directive 2014/107/EU (commonly known as “DAC2”), which extended cooperation between EU tax authorities for the automatic exchange of financial transaction information. This extension effectively incorporated the Common Standard which was developed by the OECD, into the EU Directive 2011/16/EU on administrative cooperation in the field of taxation.
