External tax advisers are considered as intermediaries if they fulfill the conditions from the first or second paragraph of Article 255.o of Tax Procedure Rules Act-2. To the extent that external tax advisers are considered intermediaries in accordance with the first paragraph of Article 255.o of the Tax Procedure Rules Act-2, tax experts of an international group of companies are excluded from the obligation to report only if they can prove that the same information was provided by another intermediary, ie external tax advisor (Article 255t of the Tax Procedure Rules Act-2).Law firms can use the privilege of professional secrecy (according to the Attorneys Act and Code of Professional Conduct) and in that case, the reporting obligation is transferred to the taxpayers concerned. In case of a market arrangement, the intermediaries invoking the privilege must also report on the market arrangement, since, given that it is standardized, it does not contain information about clients (taxpayers). In this case, the customer information itself must be reported by the taxpayers concerned who will use such an arrangement.

Pursuant to the first paragraph of Article 255.o of the Tax Procedure Rules Act-2, a special company is an intermediary in the cases when it designs, markets organizes or makes available for use a cross-border arrangement, which is reported, or manages its implementation and fulfils at least one of the additional conditions from of the third paragraph of Article 255.o of the Tax Procedure Rules Act-2. As a taxpayer in question, this particular company would be considered if (1) it was the beneficiary of an arrangement last designed by another intermediary, or (2) if it were so in-house arrangement (when there is no intermediary). In both cases, the special company is considered to be a taxable person when it obtains benefits from the arrangement.

These actions are not defined.

Main benefit test examinate the purpose of the cross-border arrangement and is deemed to be fulfilled if it can be established that the main benefit or one of the main benefits which a person can reasonably expect in the use of the arrangement to obtain a tax advantage, given all the relevant facts and circumstances.

In connection with assessing the tax benefits of the arrangement, the tax authority will follow the recommendations of the European Commission. In determining whether an arrangement or set of arrangements constitutes a tax advantage, the amount of tax that the taxpayer would have to pay under the arrangements in question is compared with the amount that the same taxpayer would have owed in the same circumstances if it had not been for those arrangements. In this context, it is considered whether the following cases are true:1. the amount is not included in the tax base;2. the taxpayer is entitled to a deduction;3. there is a loss for tax purposes;4. no withholding tax;5. if the foreign tax is offset.
