AmChams in Europe serves as the umbrella organisation for 45 AmChams from 43 countries throughout Europe and Eurasia. The conference provides an opportunity to exchange best practices and knowledge as well as to discuss relevant and shared issues impacting AmChams and their members from across Europe and wider regions. During the best practices conference the leaders of each AmCham were able to discuss the impact of COVID-19 on business across 43 countries and share best practices on how to mitigate the effects of the pandemic on business.

Industry calls for ambitious tax simplification
AmCham EU has joined 22 other business, financial and professional associations in calling on Member States to reach agreement on the Commission’s Tax Simplification Package. The measures could save businesses operating in Europe around €8 billion a year, money currently absorbed by complexity rather than invested in growth. Tax collected only to be refunded and withholding taxes that hinder investment in the Single Market add costs without strengthening the tax base. Europe has already strengthened its tax framework, so simplification can go ahead without weakening enforcement. Agreement will only matter if the ambition of the package survives the negotiations.
