Each year, the Global Relations Programme in taxation (GRP) holds more than 50 events to equip tax officials from developing countries with the knowledge and skills to tackle today’s most pressing challenges in international taxation, on topics ranging from How to tackle BEPS practices or audit MNEs, to How to exchange information or negotiate tax treaties. These events are offered free of charge in three formats: (1) face-to-face, (2) blended learning, and soon, also in (3) e-learning. 

Our goal is to help tax officials take part in an international community to share their experiences, acquire a common understanding of international tax systems and their implementation and develop solutions to common problems. Approximately 40 000 tax officials from more than 100 countries have participated in the Programme since 1992. Many of these events are delivered in partnership with regional and international tax organisations.

The Global Relations Programme thanks its donors, especially Japan, for their generous financial and in-kind contributions.
