answer text <p>The Digital Services Tax will only apply to businesses with in-scope revenues of more than £500 million globally and £25 million in the UK, and businesses will not have to pay the tax on their first £25 million of relevant UK revenues. This means small businesses will not be in scope of the tax.</p><p> </p><p>The tax also includes a ‘safe-harbour’ which means those with very low profit margins will be able to elect to pay a lower rate of tax, which will ensure the DST is proportionate.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Last year HMRC secured and protected over £30 billion by clamping down on tax avoidance, evasion and non-compliance.</p><p> </p><p>This has been possible, in part, as a result of HMRC’s work on the OECD-led Base Erosion and Profit Shifting project, and the successful introduction of new rules such as the Diverted Profits Tax.</p><p> </p><p>This Government announced a new package of measures at Budget 2018 that further strengthen the existing rules. This package included a specific measure aimed at tackling tax avoidance involving the fragmentation of UK business profits. These Profit Fragmentation rules ensure that the amount of business profits that should be taxable in the UK are fully-taxed in the UK.</p><p> </p><p> </p> more like this
