Key conclusions

icon-treaties
Bahrain has expanded its tax information exchange network by ratifying the multilateral Convention on Mutual Administrative Assistance in Tax Matters, which entered into force in September 2018, and can therefore anticipate receive more requests in future.
icon-business
Bahrain received a recommendation to ensure that up-to-date beneficial ownership information is available for all partnerships as a result of the strengthening of the international standard in 2016.
icon-information-exchange
Bahrain had not received any requests for information at the time of its 2013 reviews. In the new review period a few requests were made to Bahrain, which demonstrated that its organisational processes allowed for timely responses to partners’ requests.
