Re: Exchange of Information Between Canada and Switzerland
We are writing in reply to your letter dated June 1, 1990, concerning administrative arrangements made pursuant to the Canada-Switzerland Income Tax Convention.
As permitted by the Convention, Revenue Canada, Taxation has entered into an arrangement with the Federal Tax Administration of Switzerland whereby we periodically provide them with copies of NR4 and NR4-A slips that show amounts paid to persons with Swiss addresses. We are of the opinion that the Convention authorizes our department to provide this information to the Swiss authorities in the manner presently being exercise. However, where the interest and dividends are remitted directly to a Lienchtenstein beneficial owner, the Convention would not apply (i.e. we would not provide the Swiss with a copy of the NR4).
We trust you will find this to your satisfaction. If the above information does not coincide with a particular case in mind, please let us know immediately.
Your sincerely,
Acting DirectorProvincial and International Relations Division
