Upstream licences in Faroe Islands are awarded under concession terms through licensing rounds or direct applications for licencing. Within the concession terms contractors pay corporate income tax and an additional profits tax which varies with project profitability. The special tax is ring-fenced at the field level with corporate income tax at the company level. There is no government equity participation.
