(1) Dividenden, die eine in einem Vertragsstaat ansässige Ge-
sellschaft an eine im anderen Vertragsstaat ansässige Person
zahlt, können im anderen Staat besteuert werden.
English
(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) Diese Dividenden können jedoch auch in dem Vertrags-
staat, in dem die die Dividenden zahlende Gesellschaft ansässig
ist, nach dem Recht dieses Staates besteuert werden; die Steu-
er darf aber, wenn der Nutzungsberechtigte der Dividenden im
anderen Vertragsstaat ansässig ist, nicht übersteigen:
a) 5 vom Hundert des Bruttobetrags der Dividenden, wenn der
Nutzungsberechtigte eine Gesellschaft (jedoch keine Perso-
nengesellschaft) ist, die unmittelbar über mindestens 10 vom
Hundert des Kapitals der die Dividenden zahlenden Gesell-
schaft verfügt,
b) 10 vom Hundert des Bruttobetrags der Dividenden, wenn der
Nutzungsberechtigte eine Altersvorsorgeeinrichtung ist,
c) 15 vom Hundert des Bruttobetrags der Dividenden in allen
anderen Fällen.
Dieser Absatz berührt nicht die Besteuerung der Gesellschaft in
Bezug auf die Gewinne, aus denen die Dividenden gezahlt wer-
den.
English
(2) However, such dividends may also be taxed in the Con-
tracting State of which the company paying the dividends is a
resident and according to the laws of that State, but if the bene-
ficial owner of the dividends is a resident of the other Contract-
ing State, the tax so charged shall not exceed:
a) 5 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends if the bene-
ficial owner is a company (other than a partnership) which
holds directly at least 10 per cent of the capital of the com -
pany paying the dividends;
b) 10 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends if the bene -
ficial owner is a pension scheme;
c) 15 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends in all other
cases.
The provisions of this paragraph shall not affect the taxation of
the company in respect of the profits out of which the dividends
are paid.
(3) Der in diesem Artikel verwendete Ausdruck „Dividenden“
bedeutet Einkünfte aus Aktien, Genussrechten oder Genuss-
scheinen, Kuxen, Gründeranteilen oder sonstige Einkünfte, die
nach dem Recht des Staates, in dem die ausschüttende Gesell-
schaft ansässig ist, den Einkünften aus Aktien steuerlich gleich-
gestellt sind, sowie Einkünfte aus Ausschüttungen auf Anteil-
scheine an einem deutschen Investmentvermögen.
English
(3) The term “dividends” as used in this Article means income
from shares, “jouissance” shares or “jouissance” rights, mining
shares, founders’ shares or other item 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 resi -
dent, and income from distributions on certificates of a German
“Investmentvermögen”.
(4) Die Absätze 1 und 2 sind nicht anzuwenden, wenn der in
einem Vertragsstaat ansässige Nutzungsberechtigte im anderen
Vertragsstaat, in dem die die Dividenden zahlende Gesellschaft
ansässig ist, eine Geschäftstätigkeit durch eine dort gelegene
Betriebsstätte ausübt und die Beteiligung, für die die Dividenden
gezahlt werden, tatsächlich zu dieser Betriebsstätte gehört. In
diesem Fall ist Artikel 7 anzuwenden.
English
(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 and the holding in re-
spect of which the dividends are paid is effectively connected
with such permanent establishment. In such case the provisions
of Article 7 shall apply.
(5) Erzielt eine in einem Vertragsstaat ansässige Gesellschaft
Gewinne oder Einkünfte aus dem anderen Vertragsstaat, so darf
dieser andere Staat weder die von der Gesellschaft gezahlten Di-
videnden besteuern, es sei denn, dass diese Dividenden an eine
im anderen Staat ansässige Person gezahlt werden oder dass
die Beteiligung, für die die Dividenden gezahlt werden, tatsäch-
lich zu einer im anderen Staat gelegenen Betriebsstätte gehört,
noch Gewinne der Gesellschaft einer Steuer für nicht ausge-
schüttete Gewinne unterwerfen, selbst wenn die gezahlten Divi-
denden oder die nicht ausgeschütteten Gewinne ganz oder teil-
weise aus im anderen Staat erzielten Gewinnen oder Einkünften
bestehen.
English
(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 situated in that other State, nor sub-
ject 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.
(6) Entlastungen nach diesem Artikel werden nicht gewährt,
wenn der Hauptzweck oder einer der Hauptzwecke einer der
Personen, die an der Begründung oder Übertragung der Aktien
oder anderen Rechte, für die die Dividende gezahlt wird, beteiligt
waren, darin bestand, diesen Artikel mithilfe dieser Begründung
oder Übertragung in Anspruch zu nehmen.
English
(6) No relief shall be available under this Article if it was the
main purpose or one of the main purposes of any person con-
cerned with the creation or assignment of the shares or other
rights in respect of which the dividend is paid to take advantage
of this Article by means of that creation or assignment.
