Original & source
§
- 1. Items of income of a resident of a Contracting State, wherever arising, not dealt with in the foregoing Articles of this Convention, other than income paid out of trusts, shall be taxable only in that State.
§
- 2. The provisions of paragraph (1) of this Article shall not apply to income other than income from immovable property as defined in paragraph (2) of Article 6 of this Convention, if the recipient of such income, being a resident of a Contracting State, carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein, or performs in that other State independent personal services from a fixed base situated therein, and the right or property in respect of which the income is paid is effectively connected with such permanent establishment or fixed base. In that case, the provisions of Article 7 or Article 14 of this Convention, as the case may be, shall apply.
§
- 3. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article, items of income of a resident of a Contracting State, other than income paid out of trusts, not dealt with in the foregoing Articles of this Convention and arising in the other Contracting State may also be taxed in that other State if these items are not effectively taxed in the first mentioned State. An item of income is effectively taxed when it is included in the gross taxable base by reference to which the tax is computed.
§
- 4. Where, by reason of a special relationship between the resident referred to in paragraph 1 and some other person, or between both of them and some third person, the amount of the income referred to in that paragraph exceeds the amount (if any) which would have been agreed upon between them in the absence of such relationship, the provisions of this Article shall apply only to the last-mentioned amount. In that case, the excess part of the payments shall remain taxable according to the laws of each Contracting State, due regard being had to the other applicable provisions of this Convention.
§
- 5. [REPLACED by paragraph 1 and paragraph 4 of Article 7 of the MLI] (Refer to the box following Article 28 of the Convention) [No relief shall be available under this Article if it was the main purpose or one of the main purposes of any person concerned with the creation or assignment of the rights in respect of which the income is paid to take advantage of this Article by means of that creation or assignment].

Edition notes and known limitations

HMRC publisher synthesis; not an authentic signed instrument. Authentic treaty and MLI texts prevail. Currentness not checked.

Complete substantive publisher content and true end-of-publication are evidenced; no diplomatic closing is printed or fabricated.

No Original PDF, authentic instrument or physical-facsimile wording claim. Native extraction can flatten MLI boxes and ordered-list styling.

Publisher “in force” wording is retained as source wording, not adopted as a current-law badge.

Publisher preface, references, general MLI effect conditions and modified preamble are top-level searchable supplements. Inline MLI qualifications and box references remain in their articles.

Publication title/index protocol-year terminology is not silently reconciled with the body’s dated protocol references.

Italy remains outside this candidate; no full-reader or goal-credit change.

Source authority, text completeness and currentness still require human review.
