DAC 6 Refresher

A webinar organised by MIT, IFSP & MIA
The recent amendment to S.L. 123.127 effected by LN 162 of 2026 has tightened the scope of the DAC 6 reporting waiver that applies to information which is subject to legal professional privilege.  This webinar will consider the practical impact of the amendment for tax professionals and the steps that practitioners should take to assess their DAC6 reporting obligations and ensure continued compliance. The session will provide:

  • An analysis of the amendment of the proviso to Article 5(1) of S.L. 123.127 (the reporting waiver provision) 
  • An understanding of how this may impact tax professionals in practice
  • A refresher on the DAC 6 reportable arrangements and the key hallmarks that trigger a reporting obligation, with insights into the practical experience of the speakers.

This session is ideal for tax professionals and other ‘intermediaries’ who wish to obtain a practical understanding of their obligations around the Mandatory Automatic Exchange of Information in relation to Cross-Border Arrangements (DAC 6) in light of the recent developments.
