A phenomenon of described herein takes place in situations where these links result in the understatement of income and failure to show the income by the related entities. The main reasons for this phenomenon and the methods of limiting thereof are presented here. In addition, the issue of pricing agreements (APA) is touched. In conclusion, the tax regulations discussed are intended to reduce the incidence of shifting the profits between affiliated companies. In the current economic environment, it is not an easy task, since the benefits accruing from this practice are significant. Therefore, the temptation to use the mechanism of transfer pricing is high.
