(1) Dividends paid by a company which is a resident of a Con-
tracting State to a resident of the other Contracting State may be
taxed in that other State.
(2) However, such dividends may also be taxed in the Contract-
ing State of which the company paying the dividends is a resi-
dent and according to the laws of that State, but if the beneficial
owner of the dividends is a resident of the other Contracting
State, the tax so charged shall not exceed:
a) 5 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends if the benefi-
cial owner is a company which holds directly at least 25 per
cent of the capital of the company paying the dividends;
b) 15 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends in all other
cases.
This paragraph shall not affect the taxation of the company in
respect of the profits out of which the dividends are paid.
(3) The term “dividends” as used in this Article means income
from shares, “jouissance” shares or “jouissance” rights, mining
shares, founders’ shares or other income which is subjected to
the same taxation treatment as income from shares by the laws
of the State of which the company making the distribution is a
resident and distributions on certificates of an investment fund or
investment trust.
(4) The provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply if the
beneficial owner of the dividends, being a resident of a Contract-
ing State, carries on business in the other Contracting State of
which the company paying the dividends is a resident, through a
permanent establishment situated therein, or performs in that
other State, independent personal services from a fixed base
situated therein, and the holding in respect of which the divi-
dends are 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.
(5) Where a company which is a resident of a Contracting State
derives profits or income from the other Contracting State, that
other State may not impose any tax on the dividends paid by the
company, except insofar as such dividends are paid to a resident
of that other State or insofar as the holding in respect of which
the dividends are paid is effectively connected with a permanent
establishment or a fixed base situated in that other State, nor
subject the company’s undistributed profits to a tax on the com-
pany’s undistributed profits, even if the dividends paid or the
undistributed profits consist wholly or partly of profits or income
arising in such other State.

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 2006-05-03; consent law 2006-12-02; gazette publication 2006-12-07. 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: 2007-01-01 (not a universal tax-specific rule). Cached official article entry statements (may refer to multiple instruments): 19. Dezember 2006, 30. Juli 2012. 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. Later amending protocol signed 2011-05-17, entered into force 2012-07-30, general application 2012-07-30; NOT included in this base source. Tax-specific application needs review.

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. Known related/later instruments NOT included in this source (agent triage, not exhaustive): amending-protocol; signature date: 2011-05-17; entry into force: 2012-07-30; general application from: 2012-07-30; limit: Exact tax-specific application remains for protocol review.
