(1) Where a resident of a Contracting State considers
that the actions of one or both of the Contracting States
result or will result for him in taxation not in accordance
with this Agreement, he may, notwithstanding the reme-
dies provided by the national laws of those States, pres-
ent his case to the competent authority of the Contract-
ing State of which he is a resident.
(2) The competent authority shall endeavour, if the ob-
jection appears to it to be justified and if it is not itself
able to arrive at an appropriate solution, to resolve the
case by mutual agreement with the competent authority
of the other Contracting State, with a view to the avoid-
ance of taxation not in accordance with this Agreement.
(3) The competent authorities of the Contracting States
shall endeavour to resolve by mutual agreement any dif-
ficulties or doubts arising as to the interpretation or
application of this Agreement. They may also consult to-
gether for the elimination of double taxation in cases not
provided for in this Agreement.
(4) The competent authorities of the Contracting States
may communicate with each other directly for the pur-
pose of applying the provisions of this Agreement.

All text is unreviewed OCR, including retained wrong glyphs, punctuation, hyphens and spacing. Treaty preamble, closing, protocol, signatures, implementing law and any notes are retained separately at /review/de-jamaica-1976-base/. Exact physical-page spans and unresolved OCR at /review/de-jamaica-1976-base/evidence/. Source-page links are page references, not verified paragraph alignment.
