Challenges and Solutions

The goal of this study was to evaluate how global digital companies exploit tiny economies by engaging in tax avoidance. It looked at the difficulties and made recommendations for how small economies might handle these difficulties brought on by large digital companies that use the features of their services and technology to escape taxes. Key informant interviews and secondary data gathering from pertinent literature and reports were used as qualitative research techniques. Interviews were conducted with five important informants from the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) The study additionally categorizes the types of services offered by various digital economies. It draws attention to the difficulties faced by tiny economies, including the change in global business models, tax evasion, international tax laws, and a lack of resources to comply with them. The results show how minor economies are exploited by digital behemoth businesses through their operations in their jurisdictions, capitalizing on earnings, and dodging tax obligations due to non-legally binding instruments that require international firms to conform.
