The Israel Tax Authority (ITA) on 17 August 2023 published Tax Circular 1/2023 clarifying the relevance and procedures for competent authority, mutual agreement and bilateral advance pricing agreement (APA) requests.
The circular, which replaces guidance previously released in 2001, enumerates the scenarios that may be relevant for Israel taxpayers in seeking treaty-based relief from potential double tax and outlines the expected process and requirements for such an application.
