You don't declare profits. You just invoice or lend between international elements of your group with timing such that at the end of year/quarter/reporting period in each jurisdiction you've lost money or made none.
A lot of money vanishes this way, a lot of money is invented this way.
Ahh. That's smart. I guess that's related to the other strategy I've heard of national HQs charging each other made-up sums in 'branding fees' to use the company logo.
Part of the EU rules is that it is a single market. However the Irish deal treats it as individual markets from the point of view of the Irish government and soobpy collects taxes on the Irish generated part.

Why are European profits declared in Ireland untaxed? I don't understand that part
