Angelina Jolie has turned her Eternals red carpet appearances into a series of family affairs.

For the Eternals premiere, during the 2021 Rome Film Fest on Sunday, the American actress walked the red carpet with her two daughters, Zahara Jolie-Pitt, 16, and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, 15.

For the glamorous event, Jolie, 46, wore a silver Atelier Versace gown, while Shiloh wore a black Versace design.

The Italian premiere appearance comes days after Jolie walked the Los Angeles red carpet with five of her six children.

Jolie was accompanied by Maddox Jolie-Pitt, 20, Vivienne Jolie-Pitt, 13, and Knox Jolie-Pitt, 13, as well as Shiloh and Zahara. Only her son Pax Jolie-Pitt, 17, was missing at the premiere on October 18.

The family went for a co-ordinated earthy colour palette, and Zahara made headlines wearing an Elie Saab gown that her mother wore to the 2014 Oscars. Shiloh's outfit was also a gown repurposed from Jolie's wardrobe, a beige dress that had been altered for the occasion.

Speaking of her children wearing pieces from her wardrobe, Jolie told ET: “My kids are all mixed with vintage, and in my old Oscars dress. We did all vintage and upcycled my old stuff.”

Also in attendance at the Italian premiere were Eternals director Chloe Zhao, and stars of the film Kit Harington, Gemma Chan and Richard Madden, and Marvel executive Victoria Alonso.

Ten tax points to be aware of in 2026

1. Domestic VAT refund amendments: request your refund within five years

If a business does not apply for the refund on time, they lose their credit.

2. E-invoicing in the UAE

Businesses should continue preparing for the implementation of e-invoicing in the UAE, with 2026 a preparation and transition period ahead of phased mandatory adoption. 

3. More tax audits

Tax authorities are increasingly using data already available across multiple filings to identify audit risks. 

4. More beneficial VAT and excise tax penalty regime

Tax disputes are expected to become more frequent and more structured, with clearer administrative objection and appeal processes. The UAE has adopted a new penalty regime for VAT and excise disputes, which now mirrors the penalty regime for corporate tax.

5. Greater emphasis on statutory audit

There is a greater need for the accuracy of financial statements. The International Financial Reporting Standards standards need to be strictly adhered to and, as a result, the quality of the audits will need to increase.

6. Further transfer pricing enforcement

Transfer pricing enforcement, which refers to the practice of establishing prices for internal transactions between related entities, is expected to broaden in scope. The UAE will shortly open the possibility to negotiate advance pricing agreements, or essentially rulings for transfer pricing purposes. 

7. Limited time periods for audits

Recent amendments also introduce a default five-year limitation period for tax audits and assessments, subject to specific statutory exceptions. While the standard audit and assessment period is five years, this may be extended to up to 15 years in cases involving fraud or tax evasion. 

8. Pillar 2 implementation 

Many multinational groups will begin to feel the practical effect of the Domestic Minimum Top-Up Tax (DMTT), the UAE's implementation of the OECD’s global minimum tax under Pillar 2. While the rules apply for financial years starting on or after January 1, 2025, it is 2026 that marks the transition to an operational phase.

9. Reduced compliance obligations for imported goods and services

Businesses that apply the reverse-charge mechanism for VAT purposes in the UAE may benefit from reduced compliance obligations. 

10. Substance and CbC reporting focus

Tax authorities are expected to continue strengthening the enforcement of economic substance and Country-by-Country (CbC) reporting frameworks. In the UAE, these regimes are increasingly being used as risk-assessment tools, providing tax authorities with a comprehensive view of multinational groups’ global footprints and enabling them to assess whether profits are aligned with real economic activity.
