| Luxembourg, Tajikistan Ink DTA |
by Ulrika Lomas, Tax-News.com, Brussels
Tuesday, June 14, 2011
During an official visit to Luxembourg by Tajikistan’s President Emomali
Rahmon and accompanying delegation, the talks centred on strengthening bilateral
relations, on human rights, as well as on economic and financial issues, culminating
in the signing of a bilateral double taxation agreement (DTA) between the two
countries. A joint declaration aiming to strengthen bilateral relations between
Luxembourg and Tajikistan was also adopted.
According to the Luxembourg government, the discussions focussed on economic
and financial cooperation between the two countries as well as on air links.
Within this context the government notes in its release that a bilateral double
taxation agreement between Tajikistan and Luxembourg was signed by Luxembourg’s
Finance Minister Luc Frieden and his Tajikistan counterpart Safarali Nadjmouddinov.
The government confirms that the bilateral DTA provides for an effective exchange
of information upon request in individual cases between the tax administrations
of the two countries, and notes that the agreement is in complete accordance
with the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s Model
Convention.
The government points out that Luxembourg’s Development and Infrastructure
Minister Claude Wiseler and Tajikistan’s Foreign Affairs Minister Khamrohkon
Zarifi also signed an agreement as well as a Memorandum of Understanding in
the area of aviation.
Commenting on the talks, Tajikistan’s President Rahmon underlined the
fact that the relationship between the two countries is marked by “mutual
friendship”, and alluded to the importance that Tajikistan attaches to
developing relations with Luxembourg, a country which plays a key role in terms
of economic, political and industrial policy.
