• In addition, dozens of Israeli-based companies (both public companies and growth stage start-ups) have become multinational, operating foreign R&D centers overseas, in addition to the local centers.
• The pace of newly established MNCs in Israel decreased dramatically in 2017 while the number of tech M&As did not change significantly, correlated to the trend of new IT based MNCs.

Number of Employees in Active MNCs in Israel – 2019
• Most MNCs in Israel employ between 10 and 50 employees and serve as R&D centers for the parent company abroad.
• The largest number of employees is in a manufacturing facility (Intel Fab in Kiryat-Gat) and not an R&D center. Interestingly, no other High-Tech facility in Israel comes close to this scale, other than the Intel R&D center.

18% of the total income from direct tax, which is expected
to be $48 billion this year.
The median tax payment per MNC is expected to
be $7.125m in 2019.

Appendix: Tax Revenue Impact of MultinationalsThe activities of multinationals generate the following tax revenues:
Direct corporate tax;Taxation of employee’s compensation;Taxation of third parties servicing the multinationals.
Direct Taxes:
Direct corporate tax paid by the multinational (16% of net profits if approved enterprise, or 23% otherwise).Taxation on value of 102 options (following the Kontera Supreme Court decision).Taxation of dividend distributions.Due to BEPS (Base erosion and profit shifting – tax planning strategy) regime, the net income of Israeli based R&D centers is expected to grow significantly compared to cost plus model currently in use. Before BEPS the direct corporate tax was estimated to be 2–3% of total costs of the multinational (3.5% after dividend tax). Applying the OECD BEPS regime the direct corporate tax can be doubled and increased to 5–10% of total multinational costs (6–12% after dividend tax).
Employee Related Taxes:Income tax and social security taxes on compensation income (approximately 50% of cost of employee).
Taxation of Third Parties:Taxation of third parties providing services to the multinationals such as outsourcing services, professional services, rent, municipal taxes, travel, events, food ("third-party expenses").Assuming a 20%–40% profit margin and a tax rate of 23%, this results in tax of about 5%–10% of third-party expenses.
The cost per employee (cost to employer) is estimated to be approximately $220K per annum. The third-party expenses are assumed to be $70–$100K per annum.
Cumulatively, total tax per employee is estimated to range from $125,000 to $160,000 (corporate tax, employee tax and third-party taxes).
