	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 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> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 12/11/2018 17:40:51 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
