Digital Services Tax
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will take steps to ensure the digital service tax is not repealed.
Answered by James Murray
The Digital Services Tax (DST) is an interim tax measure to ensure that digital services providers pay UK tax on digital services that reflects the value they derive from UK users.
The UK remains committed to reaching a global solution on the taxation of the digital economy through Pillar 1 of the G20-OECD Inclusive Framework project. It is UK’s intention to repeal our Digital Services Tax (DST) when this international solution is in place.
