Article 27 ASSISTANCE IN THE COLLECTION OF TAXES1 1. In some countries, national law, policy or administrative considerations may not allow or justify the type of assistance envisaged under this Article or may require that this type of assistance be restricted, e.g. to countries that have similar tax systems or tax administrations or as to the taxes covered.

That revenue claim shall be collected by that other State in accordance with the provisions of its laws applicable to the enforcement and collection of its own taxes as if the revenue claim were a revenue claim of that other State. 4.

That other State shall take measures of conrvancy in respect of that revenue claim in accordance with the provisions of its laws as if the revenue claim were a revenue claim of that other State even if, at the time when such measures are applied, the revenue claim is not enforceable in the first mentioned State or is owed by a person who has a right to prevent its collection. 5. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 3 and 4, a revenue claim accepted by a Contracting State for purpos of paragraph 3 or 4 shall not, in that State, be subject to the time limits or accorded any priority applicable to a revenue claim under the laws of that State by reason of its nature as such. In addition, a revenue claim accepted by a Contracting State for the purpos of paragraph 3 or 4 shall not, in that State, have any priority applicable to that revenue claim under the laws of the other Contracting State. 6. Proceedings with respect to the existence, validity or the amount of a revenue claim of a Contracting State shall not be brought before the courts or administrative bodies of the other Contracting State. 7.

（二）从该居民的财产所征税额中扣除相当于在缔约国另一方缴纳的财产税的金额。 但该项扣除，在任何情况下，应不超过扣除前对可以在缔约国另一方征税的那部分所得或财产计算的所得税额或财产税额。 二、缔约国一方居民取得的所得或拥有的财产，按照本协定的任何规定在该国免税时，该国在计算该居民其余所得或财产的税额时，仍可对免税的所得或财产予以考虑。 第六章 特别规定 第二十四条 非歧视待遇 一、缔约国一方国民在缔约国另一方负担的税收和有关要求，不应比缔约国另一方国民在相同情况下（尤其是居民身份相同的情况下），负担或可能负担的税收和有关要求不同或比其更重。虽有第一条的规定，本规定也应适用于不是缔约国一方或双方居民的人。 二、作为缔约国一方居民的无国籍的人在缔约国任何一方负担的税收和有关要求，不应比缔约国国民在相同情况下（尤其是居民身份相同的情况下），负担或可能负担的税收和有关要求不同或比其更重。 三、缔约国一方企业在缔约国另一方设立的常设机构在该缔约国另一方的税收负担，不应高于进行相同活动的缔约国另一方企业。本规定不应被理解为，缔约国一方由于公民地位或家庭负担原因给予本国居民在税收上的任何个人的扣除、优惠和减税，也必须给予缔约国另一方居民。 四、除适用第九条第一款、第十一条第六款或第十二条第四款的规定外，缔约国一方企业支付给缔约国另一方居民的利息、特许权使用费和其他款项，在确定该企业应纳税利润时，应与在相同条件下支付给首先提及的国家的居民一样扣除。同样，缔约国一方企业对缔约国另一方居民的任何债务，在确定该企业应纳税财产时，应与在相同条件下首先提及的国家的居民的债务一样扣除。 五、缔约国一方企业的资本全部或部分，直接或间接为缔约国另一方一个或一个以上的居民拥有或控制，该企业在首先提及的国家负担的税收和有关条件，不应与首先提及的国家的其他类似企业负担或可能负担的税收和有关条件不同或比其更重。 六、虽有第二条的规定，本条规定应适用于各种税收。 第二十五条 相互协商程序 一、当一个人认为，缔约国一方或者双方所采取的措施，导致或将导致对其的征税不符合本协定规定时，可以不考虑各缔约国国内法所规定的救济方法，将案件提交给本人为其居民的缔约国主管当局；或者如果其案件属于第二十四条第一款规定的情形，可以提交给本人为其国民的缔约国主管当局。案件的提交必须在不符合本协定规定的征税措施第一次通知之日起三年内进行。 二、上述主管当局如果认为所提意见合理，又不能单方面圆满解决时，应设法同缔约国另一方主管当局相互协商解决，以避免不符合本协定的征税。达成的任何协议应予执行，而不受各缔约国国内法的任何时效限制。 三、缔约国双方主管当局应通过相互协商设法解决在解释或实施本协定时所发生的困难或疑义。缔约国双方主管当局也可以对本协定未作规定的消除双重征税问题进行协商。 四、缔约国双方主管当局为达成前述条款的协议，可以相互直接联系，包括通过由他们或他们指派的代表组成的联合委员会进行联系。 五、在， a) 根据第一款规定，一个人以缔约国一方或双方的行为已造成对其的征税违反本协定为由，将案件提交给缔约国一方主管当局，而 b) 双方主管当局自该案件提交给缔约国另一方主管当局起两年内，无法依照第二款达成协议解决该案件的情况下， 如果当事人要求，该案件产生的任何未解决之问题应交付仲裁。然而，若缔约国任何一方的法院或行政裁判庭已对这些未解决之问题作出裁定，则这些问题不应提交仲裁。除非受该案直接影响的当事人不接受实施仲裁裁决的相互协议，该仲裁裁决应对缔约国双方具有约束力，且应不受缔约国双方国内法上任何时效的影响而予以执行。缔约国双方主管当局应通过相互协议确定适用本款的方式。（脚注1） 脚注1：在一些国家，国内法律、政策或行政考量可能不允许或不能合法解释本款所述的这种争端解决方式。另外，一些国家可能仅希望在与特定国家的税收协定中纳入本款规定。基于这些原因，只有在各国基于对本款注释第65段所述因素认定将本款纳入协定中是适当的情况下，才应在协定中载入本款规定。然而，正如该注释第74段所述，也有些国家可以协议在本款中去除“如果缔约国任何一方的法院或行政裁判庭已对这些未解决之问题作出裁决，则这些问题不应提交仲裁”的条件。 第二十六条 情报交换 一、缔约国双方主管当局应交换可预见与本协定规定的实施相关的情报，以及可预见与缔约国、其所属行政区及地方当局所征收的税收的有关国内法的实施或执行相关的情报（以根据这些国内法征税与本协定不相抵触为限）。情报交换不受第一条和第二条的限制。 二、缔约国一方根据第一款收到的任何情报应视同根据该国国内法所得到的情报予以保密，应仅限于对与第一款所述税收的评估、征收、执行、起诉、裁决上诉有关的人员或当局（包括法院和行政机关）或其监督部门披露。上述人员或当局应仅为上述目的使用该项情报，但可以在公开法庭程序或法院判决中披露有关情报。 三、在任何情况下，第一款和第二款的规定不应被理解为缔约国一方有以下义务： （一）采取与该缔约国一方或缔约国另一方的法律和行政惯例不相一致的行政措施； （二）提供按照该缔约国一方或缔约国另一方的法律或正常行政渠道无法得到的情报； （三）提供泄露任何贸易、经营、工业、商业、专业秘密或贸易过程的情报，或者其披露违反公共政策（公共秩序）的情报。 四、缔约国一方依据本条向缔约国另一方请求情报，缔约国另一方应使用其情报收集手段去获取被请求的情报，即使该缔约国另一方为其自身的税收目的并不需要这些情报。上述义务受第三款的限制，但是，这种限制在任何情况下均不应被理解为允许缔约国一方仅因这些情报与本国利益无关而拒绝提供。 五、在任何情况下，第三款的规定不应被理解为允许缔约国仅因情报由银行、其他金融机构、被指定人、以代理或受托资格行事的人所持有，或者由于情报与某人的所有权利益有关而拒绝提供情报。 第二十七条 税收征收协助 注1. 在有些国家，国内法律、政策或有一封信行政考量可能不允许或不能合法解释提供本条所述的这种协助，或可能要求对这种协助进行限制，例如仅限于对税收制度、征管机制以及所涉税种相似的国家提供这种协助。因此，只有当缔约国各方基于本条注释第1段所述的各种因素考虑，能够同意为缔约国另一方的税款征收提供协助，才应在其协定中加入本条。 一、缔约国相互之间应在税款征收方面提供协助。这种协助不受第一条和第二条的限制。缔约国双方主管当局可以通过相互协商来确定实施本条的方式。 二、本条中“税款请求权”一语是指纳税人欠缴的缔约国一方、所属行政区或地方当局所征收的任何税收（但以该税款的征收不违背本协定或缔约国双方共同加入的其他国际法律文件为限），以及与该欠缴税款相关的利息、行政罚款以及征收或保全费用。 三、如果缔约国一方的税款请求权根据该国法律具有可强制执行性，且根据该国法律，欠税人当时不能阻止该税款的征收，应该国主管当局的请求，缔约国另一方的主管当局在征管上应承认该税款请求权。该缔约国另一方应将该税款请求权视同本国的税款请求权，按照本国关于相关国内税收的执行和征收的法律的规定加以征收。 四、如果缔约国一方的税款请求权，该国依照其法律可以采取保全措施以确保其征收，应该国主管当局的请求，缔约国另一方的主管当局在采取保全措施上应承认该税款请求权。该缔约国另一方应将该税款请求权视同本国的税款请求权，按照本国法律的规定，对该税款请求权采取保全措施，即使该税款请求权在首先提及的国家并无可强制执行性，或欠税人有权阻止该税款的征收。 五、虽有第三款和第四款的规定，缔约国一方为第三款或第四款目的所承认的税款请求权，在该国不应受到该国法律规定的税款请求权时效的限制，也不应享有该国法律给予本国税款请求权的优先权。另外，缔约国一方为第三款或第四款目的所承认的税款请求权，在该国也不应享有按照缔约国另一方法律所享有的任何优先权。 六、有关缔约国一方的税款请求权的产生、效力以及数额争讼，缔约国另一方的法院或行政机关不应受理。 七、缔约国一方根据第三款或第四款提出请求后，缔约国另一方征收相关税款并汇给首先提及的缔约国前的任何时间，如果相关的税款请求权 （一）在根据第三款提出请求的情况下，不再是首先提及的缔约国根据其法律具有可强制执行性，且欠税人当时根据该国法律不能阻止其征收的税款请求权；或者 （二）在根据第四款提出请求的情况下，不再是首先提及的缔约国根据其法律可以采取保全措施以确保税款征收的税款请求权， 首先提及的缔约国的主管当局应迅速将此项事实告知缔约国另一方的主管当局。经缔约国另一方选择，首先提及的缔约国应中止或撤回其请求。 八、在任何情况下，本条的规定不应被理解为缔约国一方有以下义务： （一）采取与该缔约国一方或缔约国另一方的法律和行政惯例不相一致的行政措施； （二）采取与公共政策（公共秩序）相违背的措施； （三）提供协助，如果缔约国另一方并未用尽按照其法律或行政惯例视具体情况可以采取的一切合理的征收或保全措施； （四）提供协助，如果在这些情况下，该缔约国一方因此所承受的行政负担明显超出缔约国另一方可获得的利益。 第二十八条 外交使团和领事馆的成员 本协定不应影响按照一般国际法规则或按照特别协定规定给予外交使团和领事馆的成员的财政特权。 第二十九条 适用区域的扩大 注1. 括号中的文字，适用于按照特别规定，缔约国一方的部分区域不适用本协定的情况。 一、本协定原文整体或经任何必要的修改后，可以扩大适用于（甲国或乙国领域内不适用本协定的任何部分，或）由甲国或乙国负责其国际关系的任何国家或地区，而该国家或地区所征收的税收又与本协定适用的税收具有实质相似性。这种扩大适用，应从缔约国双方通过外交途径的换文或按照其宪法程序以其他方式指定和同意的日期开始生效，并受到所指定和同意的修改和条件（包括终止的条件）的约束。 二、除缔约国双方另有约定外，缔约国一方按照第三十条终止本协定时，本协定（对甲国或乙国领土的任何部分，或）对任何按本条规定加以扩大适用的国家或地区也同样终止。 第七章 最后规定 第三十条 生效 一、本协定应经过批准生效，批准文件应尽快在 互换。 二、本协定应在互换批准文件后生效，其条款规定应适用于： （一）在甲国： （二）在乙国： 第三十一条 终止
