For the purposes of this Agreement, the term ‘resident of a Contracting State’ means:

a)

in the case of the Netherlands any person who, under the laws of the Netherlands, is liable to tax therein by reason of his domicile, residence, place of management or any other criterion of a similar nature. This term, however, does not include any person who is liable to tax in the Netherlands in respect only of income from sources in the Netherlands;

b)

in the case of Qatar, any individual who has a permanent home, his centre of vital interest, or habitual abode in Qatar, and a company having its place of effective management in Qatar.

The term ‘resident of a Contracting State’ also includes that State, any political subdivision, local authority or statutory body thereof and a pension fund or a collective investment vehicle that is recognised and controlled according to the statutory provisions of a Contracting State and the income of which is generally exempt from tax in that State.

Where by reason of the provisions of paragraph 1 an individual is a resident of both Contracting States, then his status shall be determined as follows:

he shall be deemed to be a resident only of the Contracting State in which he has a permanent home available to him; if he has a permanent home available to him in both Contracting States, he shall be deemed to be a resident only of the Contracting State with which his personal and economic relations are closer (centre of vital interests);

b)

if the State in which he has his centre of vital interests cannot be determined, or if he has not a permanent home available to him in either Contracting State, he shall be deemed to be a resident only of the Contracting State in which he has an habitual abode;

c)

if he has an habitual abode in both Contracting States or in neither of them, he shall be deemed to be a resident only of the Contracting State of which he is a national;

d)

if the residence status of an individual cannot be determined in accordance with the provisions of subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, then, the competent authorities of the Contracting States shall settle the question by mutual agreement.

4.

Where by reason of the provisions of paragraph 1 a person other than an individual is a resident of both Contracting States, then it shall be deemed to be a resident only of the State in which its place of effective management is situated.
