EU tax transparency

    DAC7 and DAC8 Reporting Training

    The EU's Directives on Administrative Cooperation extend automatic exchange of tax information to new sectors. DAC7 (Council Directive (EU) 2021/514) obliges digital platform operators to collect, verify and report information on the sellers who earn through them. DAC8 (Council Directive (EU) 2023/2226) extends the same logic to crypto-asset service providers and aligns EU reporting with the OECD Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework. Both are transposed and administered nationally, so registration mechanics, filing portals and deadlines follow the Cyprus Tax Department's current guidance — confirm the applicable dates for your own obligation before relying on any summary.
