@editor 

Cross border or cross-entity tax optimisation is unfortunately a well established practice and some companies have whole departments dedicated to it.  Starbucks, for example, allegedly (and https://londondaily.com/starbucks-pays-just-5m-uk-corporation-tax-on-95m-gross-profit) pays its entity in Switzerland vast amounts to source coffee beans which (also allegedly) never even pass through that well known coffer producing company.

This, of course, seriously dilutes the autonomy of the nation state which, ultimately, is our only defence against authoritarian rule by global oligarchs.

There some international discussions which aim to restrict this, but of course some countries benefit.
