Abstract
The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the global reach of the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) through an analysis of the implementation of Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) measures in both member and non-member countries. The BEPS package comprises 15 actions aimed at preventing tax abuse, strengthening
international standards, and promoting transparency. The research is based on the hypotheses that BEPS measures exert a global influence and that the OECD’s international activities are reflected in the national legislations of non-member states. A descriptive and comparative methodology was employed to analyze the legislative frameworks of countries that have implemented BEPS measures. The results confirm both hypotheses, concluding that the OECD plays a pivotal role in shaping contemporary tax systems, thereby contributing to greater harmonization and an increase in tax revenues as a share in GDP.
