- The European Parliament’s Budget Committee published a briefing on 22 June 2026 on whether an EU digital services tax (DST) could serve as a new EU own resource.
- The briefing says stalled OECD Pillar One talks and UN negotiations running until 2027 are increasing pressure for an EU-level solution, while existing national DSTs are fragmenting the Single Market.
- It estimates an EU-wide DST on large multinationals could raise significant revenue for the EU budget by 2028, with B2C e-commerce contributing the most.
- It outlines four policy options: a temporary EU DST, a coordinated system replacing national taxes, a phased approach, or a hybrid model.
