This year, the conference will take place in Predeal at ASE’s „I.Gh. Rosca” Training Center Complex.
The International Conference „Perspectives of Tax Law” is the host for the 5the edition of the CEE Tax Lab project, launched in 2016, as an initiative of academics and practitioners from Central and Eastern European countries (Romania, Poland, Serbia, Hungary), with the support of specialists from Brussels, who are familiar with the institutions and mechanisms of the European Union and the OECD.F
Our upcoming tax conference will highlight some of the current tax issues faced by the Central and Eastern European countries in the context of developments at EU and OECD level. The conference will provide an opportunity for presentations of national tax issues, with an emphasis on debates, so that participants can gather conclusions from the experience of other countries, which are trying to protect their tax policies and national budgets in the context of increasingly far-reaching tax harmonization measures undertaken by the EU and OECD.
The format of the conference is a specialized one with eminent speakers joining from academics and private practice from both Central and Eastern European countries: Romania, Serbia, Hungary, Poland, Bulgaria, Belgium and The Netherlands.
Papers submitted to this conference will be published in journals indexed in international databases such as the European Business Law Journal, in the Tax Advisor Journal or in the Juridical Tribune Review
