1.

Nationals of a Contracting State shall not be subjected in the other Contracting State to any taxation or any requirement connected therewith, which is other or more burdensome than the taxation and connected requirements to which nationals of that other State in the same circumstances, in particular with respect to residence, are or may be subjected. This provision shall, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 1, also apply to persons who are not residents of one or both of the Contracting States.

2.

The taxation on a permanent establishment which an enterprise of a Contracting State has in the other Contracting State shall not be less favourably levied in that other State than the taxation levied on enterprises of that other State carrying on the same activities. This provision shall not be construed as obliging a Contracting State to grant to residents of the other Contracting State any personal allowances, reliefs and reductions for taxation purposes on account of civil status or family responsibilities which it grants to its own residents.

3.

Except where the provisions of paragraph 1 of Article 9, paragraph 8 of Article 11, or paragraph 8 of Article 12, apply, interest, royalties and other disbursements paid by an enterprise of a Contracting State to a resident of the other Contracting State shall, for the purpose of determining the taxable profits of such enterprise, be deductible under the same conditions as if they had been paid to a resident of the first-mentioned State.

4.

The provisions of paragraph 2 shall not be construed to prevent Barbados from applying, at the rates specified in the Income Tax Act, tax

a)

on branch profits unless paragraph 11 of Article 10 applies; and

b)

on the premium income of non-resident insurers or foreign insurance companies.

5.

Enterprises of a Contracting State, the capital of which is wholly or partly owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by one or more residents of the other Contracting State, shall not be subjected in the first-mentioned State to any taxation or any requirement connected therewith which is other or more burdensome than the taxation and connected requirements to which other similar enterprises of the first-mentioned State are or may be subjected.

6.

Contributions paid by, or on behalf of, an individual who is a resident of a Contracting State to a pension plan that is recognised for tax purposes in the other Contracting State will be treated in the same way for tax purposes in the first-mentioned State as a contribution paid to a pension plan that is recognised for tax purposes in that first-mentioned State, provided that

a)

such individual was contributing to such pension plan before he became a resident of the first-mentioned State; and

b)

the competent authority of the first-mentioned State agrees that the pension plan corresponds to a pension plan recognised for tax purposes by that State.

For the purpose of this paragraph, ‘pension plan’ includes a pension plan created under a public social security system.

7.

This Article shall, notwithstanding the provisions of Article 2, apply to taxes of every kind and description.
