Consultative Status

IFA has consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council. In that capacity, it is represented at meetings of the UN Committee of Experts on International Tax Cooperation.

IFA also maintains close contact with the fiscal activities of the EU, the CIAT, the ICC, the OECD and various other organisations, including its Sister Organisation, the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation.

An illustration of IFA's unique role in the world of taxation, where the public and private sectors are natural adversaries, is the fact that at each Congress a joint IFA/OECD Seminar is held with Panellists belonging to both organisations to discuss issues of common interest.

Recent activities reports of related international organisations are available to IFA members on the secured part of this website.
