Netherlands Antilles And Canada Agree TIEA
It has emerged that the Netherlands Antilles and Canada have reached an agreement
on a tax information exchange agreement (TIEA). According to Caribbean Net News, the agreement was reached between the two
negotiating teams in little more than a day, and Netherland Antilles State Secretary
Alex Rosaria believes that it "will strengthen links that date back many
centuries". "It promotes Canadian investments and will also serve as an excellent
instrument to combat tax fraud, money laundering and financing of terrorism,"
he was quoted as observing. The Netherlands Antilles currently has TIEAs with the USA, Australia,
New Zealand and Spain. This year it plans to sign conventions with Mexico, Denmark, Iceland, Finland,
Sweden, Greenland and the Faroe Islands. .
