Under certain conditions, a parent company may form a tax group with its (grand)subsidiaries. Firstly, the parent company must hold at least a 95% legal and economic interest in the subsidiary. Furthermore, the financial years must coincide and the same rules must apply when determining profit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a tax group, the subsidiary\u2019s results are attributed to the parent company. The subsidiary does not cease to exist, but is no longer required to file its own tax return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Advantages and disadvantages of a fiscal unity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are various advantages to being part of a fiscal unity. For example, only one tax return needs to be filed, there is the option of horizontal loss relief, and intercompany transactions are not disclosed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One disadvantage is that each company is jointly and severally liable for the parent company\u2019s corporation tax liability, and that the small-scale investment allowance can only be claimed once.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main disadvantage of a fiscal unity is that the tax bracket step-up can only be utilised once. In 2023, the first \u20ac200,000 of profit is taxed at 19%, whilst the excess is taxed at 25.8%. For each company, the maximum benefit amounts to \u20ac13,600 (6.8% of \u20ac200,000), provided no fiscal unity is formed. Naturally, this applies only if the taxable amount can be allocated across several private limited companies on commercial grounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can read a detailed explanation of the pros and cons here: <a href=\"https:\/\/vwg.nl\/en\/nieuws\/fiscale-eenheid-vpb-aangaan\/\">Forming a corporate tax group<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Retroactivity<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you wish to form or extend a tax group, please bear in mind that a request has a maximum retroactive effect of three months. To form a tax group with effect from 1 January 2023, a request must therefore be submitted to the Tax and Customs Administration by 31 March at the latest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are you looking to dissolve a tax group? A tax group cannot be dissolved with retroactive effect, but only with effect from today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Could forming or dissolving a tax group be an option for you?
