New International Agreements
Parliament is currently discussing four Double Tax Treaties (“Treaties”), principally the Treaties with the Kingdom of Bahrain and Hong Kong, which were executed in May and June of this year. The Treaties concluded with Denmark and Poland were added to the former Treaties in September. It is estimated that the Treaties will become effective in 2012 or 2013.
The Treaties set forth, inter alia, the maximum tax rates to be paid on income in the source state, e.g. income from dividends, interest or license fees. Such rates, depending on the type of income, are set at 0 to 15%.
