Tom Gilliver contributes the chapter on taxation in the fourth edition of The Space Law Review, one of the Expert Panels in the Law Reviews series.
For companies in the space industry, tax is an important factor in determining where to base themselves. This chapter surveys the basic conceptual framework relevant to the direct taxation of space companies, focusing particularly on the operation of satellites. While the United Kingdom's corporate taxation is Tom’s area of practice, this chapter does not focus on any particular jurisdiction; rather, it highlights concepts and issues that are common to many jurisdictions.
