The European Commission's Tax Simplification Package was formally proposed on 24 June 2026 against the backdrop of growing calls for a simpler and more coherent EU tax framework, particularly following a series of recent international and EU tax reforms.

The objective of the proposal remains clear and consistent: to simplify the EU tax framework, foster a more business-friendly environment across the Union, and enhance the EU's competitiveness. By streamlining complex rules and removing unnecessary administrative requirements, the package is intended to allow businesses to dedicate more resources to growth, innovation and investment.

The package consists of two legislative proposals aimed at removing unnecessary red tape. These comprise the recast of the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC) and a proposal for a Council Directive – referred to as the Taxation Omnibus Directive – amending several core EU direct tax directives.
