On 17 August 2023, the Israel Tax Authority (ITA) released Tax Circular No. 1/2023, which provides guidance for mutual agreement procedure (MAP), and bilateral advance pricing agreement (APA) requests.

The new circular replaces the guidance of 2001 and outlines the various cases that Israeli taxpayers should consider when seeking relief from potential double taxation through treaty provisions. It also provides a comprehensive overview of the application process and the necessary prerequisites for pursuing such relief.
