“French and Dutch financial authorities have raided the offices of Netflix as part of a long-running investigation into potential tax fraud and breaches to labour law. The US streaming giant’s offices in Paris and Amsterdam were searched on Tuesday morning by investigators including those from France’s central office against corruption and financial and tax crimes (OCLCIFF). They were accompanied by members of the National Financial Prosecutor’s Office (PNF), according to two people familiar with the situation. The searches were part of a preliminary investigation opened in November 2022 that was looking at potential ‘aggravated tax fraud laundering and infractions of labour law,’ according to one of the people.” (11/05/24)
