OECD Announces New International Tax Transparency Framework for Offshore Real Estate

The announced entry into force in 2029 of the Automatic Exchange of Information (AEOI) relating to real estate properties situated abroad comes on top of the AEOI introduced under the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) on financial accounts (which came into force in Switzerland on 1 January 2017), as well as its extension to cryptocurrencies through the CARF Crypto Asset Reporting Framework, which introduces new due diligence and reporting obligations for financial institutions, cryptocurrency service providers and digital platforms. This expanded AEOI framework provides for a first exchange of information in 2027.

This OECD initiative, endorsed by no fewer than 26 countries and the G20, aims first and foremost to combat tax evasion in the real estate property sector, thereby seeking to close a significant gap in the tax compliance obligations of taxpayers with property abroad.
