Isle Of Man-Estonia DTA Enters Into Force,
by Jason Gorringe, Tax-News.com, London
Wednesday, December 30, 2009
The comprehensive double tax convention signed between the Isle of Man and
Estonia on May 8, 2009, has entered into force.
The Isle of Man was first to ratify the agreement, on June 16, which was then
followed by an announcement by Estonia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs,
Urmas Paet, on December 21, 2009, that Estonia had completed its ratification
procedure, bringing the document into effect.
The double taxation agreement between the two countries is based on the
model published by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development
(OECD). In addition to the agreement signalling that the Isle of Man and Estonia
wish to develop their bilateral economic relations, it will also act to prevent
tax evasion, and delivers the OECD’s agreed international standard on
tax transparency and exchange of information.
In a statement, the Isle of Man government claimed that the negotiation, signing and ratification of tax cooperation agreements demonstrates
the Isle of Man’s commitment to international standards and the global
effort to establish a system based on cooperation between countries, transparency
and effective exchange of information in tax matters, all of which strengthen
financial stability.
On April 2, 2009, the OECD acknowledged the Isle of Man’s
quality in regulation and cooperation by placing it on its "white list" of countries that have substantially implemented
the internationally agreed tax standard.
