Text
The text voted on.
AI: What this vote decides Written by AI from the official text — check the source
Parliament approved the conclusion of the Amending Protocol to the EU-Monaco agreement on the automatic exchange of financial account information for tax purposes.
The protocol updates the agreement to align with the revised OECD Common Reporting Standard and EU rules, extending the exchange to electronic money and central bank digital currencies.
It also updates data protection references to the GDPR and adds safeguards for personal data, as Monaco lacks an adequacy decision.
Parliament's approval allows the Council to adopt the decision concluding the agreement.
