(1) Au sens de la présente Convention, l’expression «résident d’un État contractant» désigne toute personne qui, en vertu de la législation de cet État, est assujettie à l’impôt dans cet État, en raison de son domicile, de sa résidence, de son siège de direction ou de tout autre critère de nature analogue et s’applique aussi à cet État, à ses Länder ou ses subdivisions politiques et à leurs collectivités locales. Toutefois, cette expression ne com- prend pas les personnes qui ne sont assujetties à l’impôt dans cet État que pour les revenus de sources situées dans cet État ou pour la fortune qui y est située.

Currentness
Original source edition; not a verified current-law consolidation. Signed 2018-02-08; consent law 2018-12-11; gazette publication 2018-12-28. Treaty entry 2019-12-16, not application. Roster general application 2020-01-01 is not a universal tax-specific rule. Entry notice dated 2020-02-06, published 2020-03-11. Article URL retains the old 1976 date; entry-notice URL retains 2018 although its printed notice is from 2020. Replaces the convention signed 1975-12-23 and its closing protocol. The retained entry notice states their expiry at the end of 2019-12-15; treaty Article 30(3) preserves application to earlier tax periods. No old treaty body is used. Roster II V denotes a negotiating protocol, not an operative amendment. Later amendments, MLI effects and developments after the 2026-01-01 roster snapshot have not been exhaustively verified.
