Formed in 1938, the International Fiscal Association (IFA) is a leading non-governmental, international organization dealing with tax matters. Headquartered in Rotterdam, IFA is comprised of company tax personnel, tax advisers, university professors, and government officials. With approximately 11,000 members worldwide in over 90 countries, IFA provides a unique forum for discussing international tax questions. IFA has national branches in nearly fifty countries.
The objectives of IFA are the study and advancement of international and comparative fiscal law and taxation. This is achieved by publication of an annual scientific research study on two major subjects, seminar papers on topical fiscal matters, and cooperation with related organizations such as the OECD and the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation.
IFA also annually hosts a Congress held in a major city throughout the world. The 2008 Congress will take place in Brussels during the week of September 1st.
The USA Branch is the largest national IFA branch, with approximately 1,200 members. The Branch hosts a two-day conference in late February/early March of each year with presentations by eminent international tax experts on topics, planning ideas and issues of current importance. The USA Branch also holds joint meetings each year with a branch from another country. The link above to the IFA USA Branch website provides additional information the IFA USA Branch.
