Dear xxxxx
Pursuant to paragraph 4 of Article XXIV of the Canada - Switzerland Income Tax Convention signed by our two countries on August 20, 1976, we would like to clarify the application of the said Convention to the taxation of remuneration paid by a political subdivision of a Contracting State to an individual in respect of services rendered to that subdivision. Paragraph 1 of Article XIX of the Convention provides that such remuneration shall be taxable only in the State of source.
We have been informed by officials of the provincial government of xxxxx of a proposal of the Swiss federal government to tax xxxxx our view. The provisions of Article XIX xxxxx remuneration from taxation by Switzerland.
We would appreciate your views in this matter.
Yours sincerely,
Christine Savage A/Director Provincial and International Relations Division
