Facing unexpected TP documentation reviews or audit triggers due to evolving compliance standards
The situation this course is for
Transfer pricing teams are under increasing pressure to produce defensible, jurisdictionally aligned documentation on demand. With tax authorities like Skattestyrelsen actively referring cases for penalty evaluation, the cost of reactive compliance is rising. Practitioners need clarity on current expectations, structured workflows, and audit-proof documentation , not just theory, but implementation-ready systems.
Who this is for
A tax or compliance professional at a multinational firm or advisory practice, responsible for transfer pricing documentation, audit readiness, and cross-border reporting. They value precision, precedent, and proactive risk management.
Who this is not for
Entry-level staff without documentation responsibility, professionals focused solely on indirect tax or corporate income tax without TP exposure, or consultants outside compliance and governance domains.
What you walk away with
- Build jurisdiction-aware transfer pricing documentation that meets current audit standards
- Implement a repeatable framework for TP compliance across multiple filings
- Anticipate and respond to documentation requests from tax authorities with confidence
- Integrate audit defense strategies into routine reporting processes
- Strengthen interdepartmental alignment between tax, finance, and legal teams
