For foreign companies, deciding where to establish a direct presence in Asia can be a difficult process. Where once only a handful of the region’s nations fit the bill of being simultaneously inexpensive, safe and appropriate for foreign direct investment (FDI), now a number of other countries are shortening the gap between themselves and the region’s biggest economies. In particular, India appears on course to rival its neighbor China as a destination for FDI, and a number of the smaller economies in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) are growing at a faster pace than ever before.

For these reasons, businesses must keep up-to-date with the numerous tax systems of the region. The tax laws of Asia, although connected to a certain extent through the region’s various double taxation agreements (DTAs), can vary dramatically from nation to nation. Understanding them can therefore help inform which of the region’s nations best suits a particular business operation.
