(1) Les autorités compétentes des États
contractants échangent les renseigne-
ments nécessaires pour appliquer les dis-
positions du présent Accord ou celles du
droit interne des États contractants rela-
tives aux impôts visés par l’Accord dans la
mesure où l’imposition qu’elle prévoit n’est
pas contraire à l’Accord. L’échange de ren-
seignements n’est pas restreint par l’article
1. Les renseignements reçus par un État
contractant sont tenus secrets de la même
manière que les renseignements obtenus
en application du droit interne de cet État
et ne sont communiqués qu’aux personnes
ou autorités (y compris les tribunaux et
organes administratifs) concernées par
l’établissement ou le recouvrement des
impôts visés par l’Accord, ou nonobstant
les dispositions du paragraphe 4, les
impôts perçus par un «Land», ou une sub-
division politique ou collectivité locale d’un
État contractant qui sont de nature ana-
logue à ceux auxquels s’applique l’Accord.
Ces personnes ou autorités n’utilisent ces
renseignements qu’à ces fins. Il ne peut
être fait état de ces renseignements au
cours d’audiences publiques de tribunaux
ou dans des jugements que si l’autorité
compétente de l’État contractant qui four-
nit les renseignements ne soulève pas
d’objections.
(2) Les dispositions du paragraphe 1 ne
peuvent en aucun cas être interprétées
comme imposant à un État contractant
l’obligation:
a) de prendre des mesures administra-
tives dérogeant à sa législation et à sa
pratique administrative ou à celles de
l’autre État contractant;
b) de fournir des renseignements qui ne
pourraient être obtenus sur la base de
sa législation ou dans le cadre de sa
pratique administrative normale ou de
celles de l’autre État contractant;
c) de fournir des renseignements qui révé-
leraient un secret commercial, indus-
triel, professionnel ou un procédé com-
mercial ou des renseignements dont la
communication serait contraire à l’or-
dre public.
(4) Pour l’application du présent article,
les impôts visés par l’Accord sont, nonobs-
tant les dispositions de l’article 2, tous les
impôts perçus par un État contractant.

The original prints German, English and French treaty and integral protocol texts in three columns. All three authentic treaty-language transcriptions are supplied here; R3 omitted French. This is NOT a full-language accuracy/completeness certification. Physical PDF page 38 is a separate German-only competent-authority agreement dated 19/20 April 2001, not an amendment or translated treaty text. No English/French version of that supplement is supplied or invented. Signature 2001-04-19 differs from edition ID/publication year 2002. No qualified human wording review, legal review, current-law or publication approval. 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-canada-2002-base/.
