Abstract

This article analyzes the challenges that the digital economy poses to international taxation and proposes, as an alternative, the recognition of the right to monetize personal data. It proposes the creation of a Unique Digital Tax Identifier and a digital reporting system that shifts the tax burden to MNEs, ensuring transparency, tax fairness, and recognition of the rights of market jurisdictions.
