Product Description

Restructuring groups is a common practice as businesses evolve over time. The restructure may inadvertently result in the application of the dividend stripping rules. The impact of these rules can result in taxpayers being double taxed on the same income.

These rule can apply beyond large groups restructuring and in recent years the IRD has been active in pursuing taxpayers where they insert a holding company, restructuring ownership or paying out large dividends from privately-held companies.

Consequently, it is critical to consider potential implications of these rules prior to the sale/transfer of shares, whether to an associated person or a third party.
