Switzerland removed from OECD ‘grey list’
Bern, 24.9.2009 - With today’s signing of the new double taxation agreement (DTA) with Qatar by President Hans-Rudolf Merz and the Prime Minister of Qatar, Switzerland has been swift to implement the OECD criteria. It has signed twelve agreements containing a clause on extended administrative assistance in tax matters. Further agreements will follow. Consequently, Switzerland will be removed from the ‘grey list’ of the OECD Secretariat.
