Abstract
Deep sea mining has the potential to raise much needed revenue for Pacific Island States. This will require national governments to implement a comprehensive fiscal regime for deep sea mining comprising pay-as-you produce and profit-based instruments. The aim of this article is to explain the design of the main fiscal instruments relevant to deep sea mining activities, focusing particularly on mining royalties, corporate tax, and resource rent taxation.
