§ PDF page 12
(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles 7, 14 and 15 income derived by a resident of a Contracting State as an enter- tainer, such as a theatre, motion picture, radio or television artiste, or a musician, or as a sportsman, from his personal activities as such exercised in the other Contracting State, may be taxed in that other State.
§ PDF page 12
(2) Where income in respect of personal activities exercised by an entertainer or a sportsman in his capacity as such accrues not to the entertainer or sportsman himself but to another person, that income may, notwithstanding the provi- sions of Articles 7, 14 and 15, be taxed in the Contracting State in which the activities of the entertainer or sportsman are exer- cised.
§ PDF page 12
(3) Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply to income accruing from the exercise of activities by artistes or sportsmen in a Con- tracting State where the visit to that State is financed entirely or mainly from public funds of the other State, a political subdivi- sion or a local authority thereof or by an organisation which in that other State is recognised as a charitable organisation. In such a case the income may be taxed only in the Contracting State of which the individual is a resident.

Edition notes and known limitations

Original source edition; not a verified current-law consolidation. Unknown as current law. Signed 2010-02-17; consent law 2010-11-18; gazette publication 2010-11-23. Edition ID year is not a signature date. Treaty entry into force: not resolved as a single source-bound field by the retained audit. Roster general application: 2011-01-01 (not a universal tax-specific rule). Evidence is the retained 2026-10-01 agent audit of source PDF, 2026-01-01 roster and cached official HTML, not a fresh current-law determination. Bounded agent triage, no qualified wording/alignment/legal review. No exhaustive verification of all later 2026 developments. Matching digest proves retained source identity, not legal force.

Printed signature protocol retained separately and not merged into articles. MLI application and complete later amendments, replacements or suspensions are NOT verified. No developments after the retained roster snapshot are certified. This is NOT a current consolidated instrument. Source-triage warnings: Bounded agent triage, no qualified wording/alignment/legal review. No exhaustive verification of all later 2026 developments. Matching digest proves retained source identity, not legal force.

This source supplies German and English versions. The signing clause also identifies Arabic as authentic; that third version is NOT present in this reader. Missing here does not mean globally unavailable. Unreviewed coordinate-based machine transcription of this original source edition only. Printed line breaks, hyphens and uncertain token spacing are retained, not silently corrected. Treaty preamble, closing formula, protocol and shared signatures are separate retained assets, not part of the last article. Full supplements: /review/de-syria-2010-base/. PDF page links identify pages, not verified paragraph correspondence.
