Change 1

ChangedRecital 3: (3) Albeit different in their design, the fundamental features of corporate income tax systems are similar as they lay down rules aiming towards the same objective, i.e., to arrive at a taxable base for businesses. In this vein, to support the proper functioning of the internal market, the corporate tax environment in the Union should be shaped according to the principle that companies pay their fair share of tax in the jurisdiction(s) where their profits are generated. Therefore, it would be important for businesses which operate on the internal market that Member States introduce a common legal framework to harmonise the fundamental features of corporate income tax systems with a view to simplifying tax rules, reducing administrative burden, ensuring a fair competition, enhancing legal certainty for companies operating across borders, and fighting tax avoidance. The scope of such harmonisation should be strictly limited to the criteria and entities referred to in this Directive, while the tax rate and enforcement policies remain with Member States, within the framework of Council Directive (EU) 2022/25231a. / 1a. Council Directive (EU) 2022/2523 of 1415 December 2022 on ensuring a global minimum level of taxation for multinational enterprise groups and large-scale domestic groups in the Union (OJ L 328, 22.12.2022, p. 1, ELI: http://data.europa.eu/eli/dir/2022/2523/oj).
