The OECD Forum on Tax Administration (FTA) published a global reference document setting out actions taken by tax administrations around the world to support taxpayers hit by the coronavirus crisis. The document is to assist administrations in the consideration and development of their domestic measures and will be updated on a regular basis.

The actions taken to support taxpayers include measures to address cash-flow concerns, difficulties in meeting reporting and payment deadlines and communication initiatives.
