Vodafone paid UK tax on Irish subsidiary

Vodafone made a multi-million pound settlement to British customs after it used a subsidiary it set up in Dublin to collect royalty payments around the world.

Vodafone Ireland Marketing Ltd, which was registered to an industrial estate in Leopardstown, was reporting a turnover of more than €500m per year by 2011.

The news of the settlement with Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) in Britain was reported by The Guardian.
