About Course:

Course Duration:
188 minutes comprising of 4 episodes

Course Background:
As you are aware, international taxation refers to the global tax rules that apply to transactions between two or more countries (also called States) in the world. It encompasses all tax issues arising under a country’s income tax laws that include some foreign element.  

International taxation also supports other objectives of domestic tax systems. These objectives normally include measures, (1) to promote fairness by imposing equal tax burdens on domestic and foreign taxpayers with equal income and ability to pay, regardless of the source of the income; (2) to enhance domestic competitiveness through fiscal measures and to promote economic growth; (3) to obtain a fair share of the revenues from cross-border transactions; and, (4) to ensure an equitable balance between capital export and capital import neutrality.
