The University of Hamburg (IIFS), the City University of Applied Sciences, Bremen and the Instituto Brasileiro de Direito Tributario (IBDT), Sao Paulo, have developed a comparison of Brazilian and German tax law. Around 80 experts from academia, tax consultancy and the judiciary worked identified similarities and differences in the business tax laws of the two countries. Brazil is an important trading partner for German industry, but since there is no double taxation agreement the risk of double taxation is particularly high. The comparison can show alternatives for tax regulations and at the same time will provide tax consultants and the exporting industry with a guideline for dealing with cross-border tax problems.
