Press Release: State aid: Commission extends information enquiry on tax rulings practice to all Member States

The European Commission enlarged on the 17 December 2014 the enquiry into the tax ruling practice under EU state aid rules to cover all Member States. The Commission would ask Member States to provide information about their tax ruling practice, in particular to confirm whether they provided tax rulings, and,if they did, to request a list of all companies that had received a tax ruling from 2010 to 2013. The Commission already requested similar information on tax rulings from several Member States in June 2013.
