(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of Articles 7, 14 and 15
income derived by a resident of a Contracting State as an enter-
tainer, such as a theatre, motion picture, radio or television
artiste, or a musician, or as a sportsman, from his personal
activities as such exercised in the other Contracting State, may
be taxed in that other State.
(2) Where income in respect of personal activities exercised
by an entertainer or a sportsman in his capacity as such
accrues not to the entertainer or sportsman himself but to
another person, that income may, notwithstanding the provi-
sions of Articles 7, 14 and 15, be taxed in the Contracting State
in which the activities of the entertainer or sportsman are exer-
cised.
(3) Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply to income accruing
from the exercise of activities by artistes or sportsmen in a Con-
tracting State where the visit to that State is financed entirely or
mainly from public funds of the other State, a political subdivi-
sion or a local authority thereof or by an organisation which in
that other State is recognised as a charitable organisation. In
such a case the income may be taxed only in the Contracting
State of which the individual is a resident.

Text and language scope
This source supplies German and English versions. The signing clause also identifies Arabic 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-syria-2010-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 2010-02-17; consent law 2010-11-18; gazette publication 2010-11-23. 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: 2011-01-01 (not a universal tax-specific rule). 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. 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.
