To benefit from tax concessions to the Latvian holdings There are no additional requirements to enjoy the tax benefits  like requirement for participating interest, duration of share ownership, nature of business, taxation level in the country of the subsidiary etc.

The European regulation about the parent companies and subsidiaries allowing the application of the withholding 0% tax rate (before profit distribution) to companies registered in the European Union is still effective.
