| Jersey Signs Comprehensive DTA With Malta |
by Robert Lee, Tax-News.com, London
Wednesday, January 27, 2010
Jersey has signed a comprehensive double taxation agreement (DTA) with Malta. The
agreement is the first negotiated by Jersey that incorporates the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) model
convention on tax information exchange within the text of a double tax convention.
The DTA also represents Jersey’s sixteenth international tax agreement
to meet the OECD tax standard on transparency and information exchange.
The agreement was signed at the Malta High Commission in London by Jersey’s
Chief Minister, Terry Le Sueur, and the High Commissioner to the United Kingdom,
Joseph Zammit Tabona, for the government of Malta.
Le Sueur said: “The signing of the DTA with Malta is a significant step.
We are keen to develop our business relationships with the EU and therefore
we are delighted that, through the DTA, we will be further strengthening our
political and business relationship with a member state.”
“It is also further evidence of Jersey’s firm commitment to the
international tax standards of transparency and information exchange, and of
its willingness to continue to negotiate international tax agreements.”
Jersey is continuing to negotiate further tax agreements and is also playing
an important international role as one of four Vice-Chairs of the Peer Review
Group, which was set up by the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of
Information for Tax Purposes. The group is responsible for monitoring and assessing
compliance with international standards.
In an additional statement, Geoff Cook, Chief Executive of Jersey Finance, said: “We support the government’s efforts to sign tax agreements, whether
in the form of a Tax Information Exchange Agreement or a Double Taxation Agreement.
Both demonstrate Jersey’s commitment to meeting international tax standards
of transparency and information exchange and demonstrate Jersey as being a cooperative
jurisdiction within the international arena. Additionally, a DTA, which is a
standard OECD agreement between countries, is designed to protect against the
risk of double taxation where the same income is taxable in two states. These
agreements pave the way for gaining greater market access with some EU countries
and in other regions.”
