answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/02/2015 answer text <p>HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has run an Advance Pricing Agreement Programme since 1999 to assist businesses in identifying solutions for complex transfer pricing issues and by agreeing their transfer pricing in advance. The average time taken by HMRC to draw up an agreement is available on the HMRC website at: <a href="http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/international/transfer-pricing-stats.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/international/transfer-pricing-stats.pdf</a></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Time taken is measured from the date the formal APA application is received to the date the agreement is signed by all relevant parties. The increase in elapsed times reflects an increased number of bilateral applications where HMRC has to work with other tax administrations, and has limited control over the process.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South West Hertfordshire answering member printed Mr David Gauke question first answered 25/02/2015 16:55:12 answering member 1529 label Biography information for Mr David Gauke
