Zoom Calls Not a Taxing Matter
Last week, Zoom Video Communications announced that, come November, the company will start collecting and remitting local utility and communications taxes in California, New York, Maryland, and Virginia. The specific taxes and their rates vary depending on the state and locality in which the user is located. As an example, in California, the company will collect the Utility User Tax (UUT) and the Communication User Tax (CUT). The rate on these taxes ranges between 0.5 percent and 11 percent. Utility and communications taxes are excise taxes, different from, and in most cases in addition to, the general sales tax that many states, rightly, levy on online video call services.

Foro Empresarial América Latina y el Caribe - Unión Europea: Repensando un futuro común
10 de noviembre | 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
En el marco del Programa AL-Invest 5.0, el sector empresarial de la Unión Europea y América Latina tuvo la oportunidad de emitir una opinión conjunta sobre los temas prioritarios para fortalecer la integración de ambas regiones a partir de los lazos multidimensionales que se han creado. En los Foros Empresariales (octubre de 2017-Ciudad de México y junio 2018 - Antigua-Guatemala), se generaron espacios de debate y se emitieron sendas declaraciones que fueron presentadas como insumo para la comunicación de la Comisión Europea sobre el futuro de la relación EU-LAC.
Hoy, en la crisis sanitaria y económica generada por la Pandemia Covid-19, resulta imperioso encontrar nuevos espacios para poder aportar en los procesos de integración, considerando que se está privilegiando las respuestas inmediatas y no necesariamente la visión de más largo plazo.
