Double Taxation Convention  
 

The Double Taxation Convention grants solutions to those individuals and legal entities that suffer tax treatments on an item in the same time period; i.e. double taxation. This convention settles sharing of the taxation power between two states when such a case occurs.

The goal of this agreement is to promote the exchange of goods and services, the inflow of capital, technology, and persons without the burden of double taxation, on one hand, and the prevention of fiscal evasion through administrative assistance between the contracting parties on the other.
