DAC 6 is the EU directive (2018/822) on the mandatory automatic exchange of information in the field of taxation in relation to reportable cross-border arrangements. In Sweden the directive is implemented through the Act (2020:434) on reportable arrangements.
The rules require certain cross-border arrangements to be reported to the Swedish Tax Agency. The reporting obligation primarily applies to intermediaries, but in some cases may also extend to the taxpayer.
Vergard Partners provides advisory services in debt structure, financing and transaction law. Where we determine that an engagement includes a reportable cross-border arrangement under DAC 6, we ensure that reporting is made in accordance with applicable law — either by us or, by agreement, by the client.
To the extent we are subject to statutory professional secrecy, the reporting obligation may pass to the client or another intermediary. We always inform the client in good time when an engagement is assessed to fall within DAC 6.
