Wait isn't Ireland an EU tax haven?

[โ€“] mannycalavera@feddit.uk 6 points 1 month ago

The EU has a blacklist of tax havens around the world. And, according to the rules the EU decided, no EU member is a tax haven. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_tax_haven_blacklist

Apparently, according to that link, they did try to class Ireland and the Netherlands as "countries with traits of tax havens" but the recommendation hasn't been implemented. Quelle suprise.
