dent of the other Contracting State may be taxed in that other
State.

aus dem sie stammen, nach dem Recht dieses Staates besteu-
ert werden; die Steuer darf aber, wenn der Nutzungsberechtigte
der Zinsen im anderen Vertragsstaat ansässig ist, 5 vom Hundert
des Bruttobetrags der Zinsen nicht übersteigen.
English

ing State in which it arises and according to the laws of that
State, but if the beneficial owner of the interest is a resident of
the other Contracting State, the tax so charged shall not exceed
5 per cent of the gross amount of the interest.

English
(3) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2,
a) interest arising in Albania and paid in consideration of a loan
guaranteed by Germany in respect of export or foreign
direct investment or paid to the Government of the Federal
Republic of Germany, the Deutsche Bundesbank, the Kredit -
anstalt für Wiederaufbau or the DEG – Deutsche Investitions-

Albanian tax;
b) interest arising in Germany and paid in consideration of a loan
guaranteed by Albania in respect of export or foreign direct
investment or paid to the Government of Albania or the

(4) Der in diesem Artikel verwendete Ausdruck „Zinsen“
bedeutet Einkünfte aus Forderungen jeder Art, auch wenn die
Forderungen durch Pfandrechte an Grundstücken gesichert sind,
und insbesondere Einkünfte aus öffentlichen Anleihen und aus
Obligationen einschließlich der damit verbundenen Aufgelder
und der Gewinne aus Losanleihen. Zuschläge für verspätete
Zahlung gelten nicht als Zinsen im Sinne dieses Artikels.
English
(4) The term “interest” as used in this Article means income
from debt-claims of every kind, whether or not secured by
mortgage, and in particular, income from government securities
and income from bonds or debentures, including premiums
and prizes attaching to such securities, bonds or debentures.
Penalty charges for late payment shall not be regarded as
interest for the purpose of this Article.
(5) Die Absätze 1 bis 3 sind nicht anzuwenden, wenn der in
einem Vertragsstaat ansässige Nutzungsberechtigte im anderen
Vertragsstaat, aus dem die Zinsen stammen, eine Geschäfts -
tätigkeit durch eine dort gelegene Betriebsstätte oder eine selb-
ständige Arbeit durch eine dort gelegene feste Einrichtung aus-
übt und die Forderung, für die die Zinsen gezahlt werden,
tatsächlich zu dieser Betriebsstätte oder festen Einrichtung
gehört. In diesem Fall ist Artikel 7 beziehungsweise Artikel 14
anzuwenden.
English
(5) The provisions of paragraphs 1 to 3 shall not apply if the
beneficial owner of the interest, being a resident of a Contracting
State, carries on business in the other Contracting State in which
the interest arises, through a permanent establishment situated
therein, or performs in that other State independent personal
services from a fixed base situated therein, and the debt-claim
in respect of which the interest is paid is effectively connected
with such permanent establishment or fixed base. In such case
the provisions of Article 7 or Article 14, as the case may be, shall
apply.
(6) Zinsen gelten dann als aus einem Vertragsstaat stammend,
wenn der Schuldner eine in diesem Staat ansässige Person ist.
Hat aber der Schuldner der Zinsen, ohne Rücksicht darauf, ob
er in einem Vertragsstaat ansässig ist oder nicht, in einem Ver-
tragsstaat eine Betriebsstätte oder eine feste Einrichtung und ist
die Schuld, für die die Zinsen gezahlt werden, für Zwecke der
Betriebsstätte oder der festen Einrichtung eingegangen worden
und trägt die Betriebsstätte oder die feste Einrichtung die
Zinsen, so gelten die Zinsen als aus dem Staat stammend, in
dem die Betriebsstätte oder feste Einrichtung liegt.
English
(6) Interest shall be deemed to arise in a Contracting State
when the payer is a resident of that State. Where, however, the
person paying the interest, whether he is a resident of a
Contracting State or not, has in a Contracting State a permanent
establishment or a fixed base in connection with which the
indebtedness on which the interest is paid was incurred, and
such interest is borne by such permanent establishment or fixed
base, then such interest shall be deemed to arise in the State in
which the permanent establishment or fixed base is situated.
(7) Bestehen zwischen dem Schuldner und dem Nutzungs -
berechtigten oder zwischen jedem von ihnen und einem Dritten
besondere Beziehungen und übersteigen deshalb die Zinsen, ge-
messen an der zugrunde liegenden Forderung, den Betrag, den
Schuldner und Nutzungsberechtigter ohne diese Beziehungen
vereinbart hätten, so wird dieser Artikel nur auf den letzteren Be-
trag angewendet. In diesem Fall kann der übersteigende Betrag
nach dem Recht eines jeden Vertragsstaats und unter Berück-
sichtigung der anderen Bestimmungen dieses Abkommens be-
steuert werden.
English
(7) Where, by reason of a special relationship between the
payer and the beneficial owner or between both of them and
some other person, the amount of the interest, having regard to
the debt-claim for which it is paid, exceeds the amount which
would have been agreed upon by the payer and the beneficial
owner in the absence of such relationship, the provisions of this
Article shall apply only to the last-mentioned amount. In such
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 provisions of this Agreement.
