(1) This Agreement shall not be interpreted to mean that a
Contracting State is prevented from applying its domestic legal
provisions on the prevention of tax evasion or tax avoidance.
If the foregoing provision results in double taxation, the compe-
tent authorities shall consult each other pursuant to paragraph 3
of Article 24 on how to avoid double taxation.
(2) The benefits of this Agreement should not be available
where a main purpose for entering into certain transactions or
arrangements was to secure a more favorable tax position and
obtaining that more favorable treatment in these circumstances
would be contrary to the object and purpose of the relevant pro-
visions.

Text and language scope
This source supplies German and English versions. The signing clause also identifies Hebrew 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-israel-2015-base/. PDF page links identify pages, not verified paragraph correspondence.
Review status
Pending human wording, completeness, source-authority, currentness, alignment and rendering review. No legal review performed.
Currentness
Original source edition; not a verified current-law consolidation. Unknown as current law. Signed 2014-08-21; consent law 2015-11-20; gazette publication 2015-11-26. 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: 2017-01-01 (not a universal tax-specific rule). Cached official article entry statements (may refer to multiple instruments): 21. August 1966, 24. September 1979, 9. Mai 2016. 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.
Protocols and later instruments
Printed signature protocol retained separately and not merged into articles. Roster future-instrument/negotiation entry (NOT proof of operative amendment): Israel R-P P: 24.05.2019 KR KR. P = Paraphierung (initialled), NOT signature; U = signed, ratification pending; V = negotiation. R-P protocol/R-A replacement. 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.
