Seit dem 28.10.2010 ist das "Abkommen über die Zusammenarbeit und den Informationsaustausch in Steuersachen" mit dem Fürstentum Liechtenstein in Kraft. Damit soll die Bekämpfung grenzüberschreitender Fälle von Steuerhinterziehung deutlich erleichtert werden - vor allem für die deutsche Finanzverwaltung. Liechtenstein erteilt Auskünfte nur für Steuerjahre ab 1.1.2010.
