Transfer pricing (TP) is increasingly becoming a hot topic for Macedonian tax residents. 

In an era of continuous globalization where intercompany transactions have become part of the day-to-day business of all multinationals, the Macedonian tax authorities start to pay more attention on this particular topic.

More and more companies recognize that effective transfer pricing policies may go far beyond simply enabling them to comply with local rules. Addressing TP issues before transactions actually occur may turn transfer pricing policies into strategic tools for supply chain decisions, as well as for global tax planning.

KPMG’s Transfer Pricing Services practice helps companies develop and implement economically justifiable transfer prices, document policies and outcomes and respond to challenges from the tax authorities. Transfer pricing is therefore a critical issue for all multinationals, and one that requires effective tax planning.
