The European Union (EU) has announced plans to implement a new digital tax on tech giants operating within the bloc. The tax, which aims to ensure that digital companies pay their fair share of taxes in Europe, will specifically target companies with annual global revenues exceeding €750 million and EU revenues of at least €50 million. This move comes in response to widespread criticism that tech companies have been able to avoid paying taxes in various EU countries by routing their profits through low-tax countries. The proposed tax is expected to generate significant revenue for EU member states and level the playing field for businesses operating within the bloc.
