The specialisation module International Tax Law covers the main features of international tax law, an overview of the OECD's BEPS project (Base Erosion and Profit Shifting, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) as well as the main features of reorganisation tax law and reorganisation tax law. The module imparts knowledge and understanding of the relevant provisions of international tax law and reorganisation tax law as well as the necessity of taking tax standards into account when dealing with practical issues. Participants are able to recognise simple and practical problems and can apply their knowledge to practical cases. This also includes the ability to collect relevant information from changes in the law and judgements, to evaluate this and to take it into account when solving specific situations.
