Taxation regime

What factors determine tax liability in your jurisdiction (eg domicile, residence or citizenship)? Tax liability in Argentina hinges on residence. As a rule, Argentine nationals are treated as residents, and foreign individuals are residents for tax purposes if either (i) they qualify as residents under Argentina’s migration rules, or (ii) they have remained in Argentina for 12 months (certain brief absences permitted). Argentine nationals may cease to be Argentine residents by obtaining residence abroad in line with that country’s migration laws, or by spending a continuous 12-month period in another country, provided that short trips back to Argentina not exceeding 90 days do not interrupt this count.

This Practice Note This Practice Note reviews mechanisms used in settling litigation. A Tomlin order consists of a consent order paired with a schedule. It operates to stay proceedings on terms that have been agreed. The provisions contained in the schedule may remain confidential. This Practice Note describes the scope of confidentiality attaching to the schedule and sets out how it differs from a standard consent order. Sample wording for a Tomlin order is included, alongside links to precedents, as well as guidance on court approval. It also addresses varying, setting aside and enforcing a Tomlin order, including the considerations the court will take into account when handling applications for each. Further guidance is provided on interpreting and applying the relevant provisions of the CPR; however, some courts and divisions impose very specific requirements for both drafting and approval, and for approaching the schedule and confidentiality issues.
