Agreement

between the European Community and the Republic of San Marino providing for measures equivalent to those laid down in Council Directive 2003/48/EC on taxation of savings income in the form of interest payments

THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY, hereinafter referred to as "Community",

and

THE REPUBLIC OF SAN MARINO, hereinafter referred to as San Marino,

both hereinafter referred to as "Contracting Party" or "Contracting Parties",

HAVE AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

Article 1

Aim

1. The purpose of this Agreement between the Community and San Marino is to consolidate and extend the existing close relations between the two Contracting Parties by establishing measures equivalent to those laid down in the Council Directive 2003/48/EC of 3 June 2003 on taxation of savings income in the form of interest payments made to beneficial owners, individuals, resident for tax purposes in a Member State of the European Community, hereinafter referred to as the Directive.

2. San Marino shall take the necessary measures and specifically provide for provisions on procedures and penalties, to ensure that the tasks necessary for the implementation of this Agreement are carried out by paying agents established within its territory, irrespective of the place of establishment of the debtor of the debt-claim producing the interest.

Article 2

Definition of beneficial owner

1. For the purposes of this Agreement, "beneficial owner" shall mean any individual who receives an interest payment or any individual for whom an interest payment is secured, unless such individual provides evidence that it was not received or secured for his or her own benefit, that is to say that:

(a) he or she acts as a paying agent within the meaning of Article 4, or

(b) he or she acts on behalf of a legal person, an investment fund or a comparable or equivalent body for common investments in securities, or

(c) he or she acts on behalf of another individual who is the beneficial owner and discloses to the paying agent the identity of that beneficial owner in accordance with Article 3.

2. Where a paying agent has information suggesting that the individual who receives an interest payment or for whom an interest payment is secured may not be the beneficial owner, and where neither paragraph 1(a) nor 1(b) applies to that individual, that agent shall take reasonable steps to establish the identity of the beneficial owner in accordance with Article 3. If the paying agent is unable to identify the beneficial owner, that agent shall treat the individual in question as the beneficial owner.

Article 3

Identity and residence of beneficial owners

In order to establish the identity and residence of the beneficial owner as defined in Article 2, the paying agent shall keep a record of the family name, the first name and the data concerning the address and residence status in accordance with the Republic of San Marino Law against usury and money-laundering. For contractual relations entered into, or transactions carried out in the absence of contractual relations, on or after 1 January 2004, for individuals presenting a passport or official identity card issued by a Member State of the European Union, hereinafter referred to as "Member State", who declare themselves to be resident in a State other than a Member State or San Marino, residence shall be established by means of a tax residence certificate issued by the competent authority of the State in which the individual claims to be resident. Failing the presentation of such a certificate, the Member State which issued the passport or other official identity document shall be considered the State of residence.

Article 4

Definition of paying agent

For the purposes of this Agreement, "paying agent" in San Marino shall mean banks under San Marino banking law, as well as economic operators including natural and legal persons resident or established in San Marino, partnerships and permanent establishments of foreign companies, which, even occasionally, accept, hold, invest or transfer assets of third parties or merely pay or secure interests in the course of their business.

Article 5

Definition of competent authority

1. For the purposes of this Agreement the "competent authorities of the Contracting Parties" shall mean those listed in Annex I.

2. The "competent authorities of States not included in the Contracting Parties" shall mean those authorities of such States which are competent for the purposes of bilateral or multilateral conventions, or, failing that, which are competent to issue certificates of residence for tax purposes.

Article 6

Definition of interest payment

1. For the purposes of this Agreement, "interest payment" means:

(a) interest paid, or credited to an account, relating to debt-claims of every kind, whether or not secured by mortgage and whether or not carrying a right to participate in the debtor's profits, and in particular, income from government securities and income from bonds or debentures, including premiums and prizes attaching to such securities, bonds or debentures; penalty charges for late payments shall not be regarded as interest payments;

(b) interest accrued or capitalised at the sale, refund or redemption of the debt-claims referred to in (a);

(c) income deriving from interest payments either directly or through an entity referred to in Article 4(2) of the Directive, distributed by:

(i) undertakings for collective investment or comparable or equivalent bodies for common investments in securities established within the territories referred to in Article 19,

(ii) an entity domiciled in a Member State, which exercises the option under Article 4(3) of the Directive and informs the paying agent of this fact,

(iii) undertakings for collective investment or comparable or equivalent bodies for common investment in securities established outside the territories referred to in Article 19;

(d) income realised upon the sale, refund or redemption of shares or units in the following undertakings and entities, if they invest directly or indirectly via other undertakings for collective investment or entities referred to below more than 40 % of their assets in debt-claims as referred to in (a):

(i) undertakings for collective investment or comparable or equivalent bodies for common investments in securities established within the territories referred to in Article 19,

(ii) an entity domiciled in a Member State, which exercises the option under Article 4(3), of the Directive and informs the paying agent of this fact,

(iii) undertakings for collective investment or comparable or equivalent bodies for common investment in securities established outside the territories referred to in Article 19.

However, San Marino shall have the option of including income mentioned under (d) in the definition of interest only to the extent that such income corresponds to gains directly or indirectly deriving from interest payments within the meaning of (a) and (b).

2. As regards paragraphs 1(c) and (d), when a paying agent has no information concerning the proportion of the income which derives from interest payments, the total amount of the income shall be considered an interest payment.

3. As regards paragraph 1(d), when a paying agent has no information concerning the percentage of the assets invested in debt-claims or in shares or units as defined in that paragraph, that percentage shall be considered to be above 40 %. Where that agent cannot determine the amount of income realised by the beneficial owner, the income shall be deemed to correspond to the proceeds of the sale, refund or redemption of the shares or units.

4. As regards paragraphs 1(b) and (d), San Marino shall have the option of requiring paying agents in its territory to annualise the interest over a period of time which may not exceed one year, and treating such annualised interest as an interest payment even if no sale, redemption or refund occurs during that period.

5. By way of derogation from paragraphs 1(c) and (d), San Marino shall have the option of excluding from the definition of interest payment any income referred to in those paragraphs from undertakings or entities established within its territory where the investment in debt-claims referred to in paragraph 1(a) of such entities has not exceeded 15 % of their assets.

The exercise of such option by San Marino, once notified to the other Contracting Party, shall be binding on both Contracting Parties.

6. The percentage referred to in paragraph 1(d) and paragraph 3 shall after 31 December 2010 be 25 %.

7. The percentages referred to in paragraph 1(d) and in paragraph 5 shall be determined by reference to the investment policy as laid down in the fund rules or instruments of incorporation of the undertakings or entities concerned and, failing which, by reference to the actual composition of the assets of the undertakings or entities concerned.

Article 7

Withholding tax

1. Where the beneficial owner is resident in a Member State, San Marino shall levy a withholding tax at a rate of 15 % during the first three years from the date of application of this Agreement, 20 % for the subsequent three years and 35 % thereafter.

2. The paying agent shall levy withholding tax as follows:

(a) in the case of an interest payment within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a): on the amount of interest paid or credited;

(b) in the case of an interest payment within the meaning of Article 6(1)(b) or (d): on the amount of interest or income referred to in those paragraphs or by a levy of equivalent effect to be borne by the recipient on the full amount of the proceeds of the sale, redemption or refund;

(c) in the case of an interest payment within the meaning of Article 6(1)(c): on the amount of income referred to in that paragraph;

(d) where San Marino exercises the option under Article 6(4): on the amount of annualised interest.

3. For the purposes of paragraph 2(a) and (b), withholding tax is levied pro rata to the period of holding of the debt-claim by the beneficial owner. When the paying agent is unable to determine the period of holding on the basis of information in its possession, it shall treat the beneficial owner as having held the debt-claim throughout its period of existence unless he provides evidence of the date of acquisition.

4. Taxes other than that provided for in this Agreement on the same interest payment, and in particular the withholding taxes levied by San Marino on San Marino's source interest income, shall be credited against the amount of the withholding tax calculated in accordance with this Article.

5. The imposition of withholding tax by the paying agent located in the Republic of San Marino shall not preclude the Member State of residence for tax purposes of the beneficial owner from taxing the income in accordance with its domestic law. In cases where a taxpayer declares his or her interest income obtained from a paying agent located in San Marino to the tax authorities in the Member State of his or her residence, that interest income shall be subject to taxation there at the same rates as those applied to interest earned domestically.

Article 8

Revenue sharing

1. San Marino shall retain 25 % of its revenue from the withholding tax referred to in Article 7 and transfer 75 % of the revenue to the Member State of residence of the beneficial owner of the interest payment.

2. Such transfers shall take place in one instalment per Member State at the latest within a period of six months following the end of the tax year of San Marino.

3. San Marino shall take the necessary measures to ensure the proper functioning of the revenue sharing system.

Article 9

Voluntary disclosure

1. San Marino shall provide for a procedure which allows the beneficial owner as defined in Article 2 to avoid the withholding tax referred to in Article 7 by expressly authorising his paying agent established in San Marino to report the interest payments to the competent authority of that State. Such authorisation shall cover all interest payments made to, or secured for the immediate benefit of, the beneficial owner by that paying agent.

2. The minimum amount of information to be reported by the paying agent in case of express authorisation by the beneficial owner shall consist of:

(a) the identity and residence of the beneficial owner established in accordance with Article 3 of this Agreement, supplemented, when available, by the tax identification number allocated by the Member State where the beneficial owner has his or her residence;

(b) the name and address of the paying agent;

(c) the account number of the beneficial owner or, where there is none, identification of the debt-claim giving rise to the interest, and

(d) the amount of the interest payment established in accordance with Article 6 of this Agreement.

3. The competent authority of San Marino shall communicate the information referred to in paragraph 2 to the competent authority of the Member State of residence of the beneficial owner. Such communications shall be automatic and shall take place at least once a year, within six months following the end of the tax year in San Marino, for all interest payments made during that year.

Article 10

Elimination of double taxation

1. The Member State of residence for tax purposes of the beneficial owner shall ensure the elimination of any double taxation which might result from the imposition of the withholding tax referred to in Article 7, in accordance with the provisions of paragraphs 2 and 3.

2. If interest received by a beneficial owner has been subject to the withholding tax referred to in Article 7 in San Marino, the Member State of residence for tax purposes of the beneficial owner shall grant him or her a tax credit equal to the amount of the tax withheld, in accordance with its national law. Where this amount exceeds the amount of tax due in accordance with its national law on the total amount of the interest payment which has been subject to the withholding tax referred to in Article 7, the Member State of residence for tax purposes of the beneficial owner shall repay to him or her the excess amount of tax withheld.

3. If, in addition to the withholding tax referred to in Article 7, interest received by a beneficial owner has been subject to any other type of withholding tax and the Member State of residence for tax purposes of the beneficial owner grants a tax credit for such withholding tax in accordance with its national law or double taxation conventions, such other withholding tax shall be credited before the procedure in paragraph 2 is applied.

4. The Member State of residence for tax purposes of the beneficial owner may replace the tax credit mechanism referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 by a refund of the withholding tax referred to in Article 7.

Article 11

Transitional provisions for negotiable debt securities

1. From the date of application of this Agreement for as long as at least one Member State also applies similar provisions, and until 31 December 2010 at the latest, domestic and international bonds and other negotiable debt securities which were first issued before 1 March 2001 or for which the original issuing prospectuses were approved before that date by the authorities which are competent for this purpose in the issuing State shall not be considered as debt-claims within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a), provided that no further issues of such negotiable debt securities are made on or after 1 March 2002.

However, for as long as at least one Member State also applies provisions similar to those of Article 7 of this Agreement the provisions of this Article shall continue to apply beyond 31 December 2010 in respect of such negotiable debt securities:

- which contain gross-up and early redemption clauses, and

- where the paying agent, as defined in Article 4, is established in San Marino, and

- where that paying agent pays interest directly to, or secures the payment of interest for the immediate benefit of, a beneficial owner resident in a Member State.

If and when all Member States cease to apply provisions similar to those of Article 7 of this Agreement, the provisions of this Article shall continue to apply only in respect of those negotiable securities:

- which contain gross-up and early redemption clauses, and

- where the issuer's paying agent is established in San Marino, and

- where that paying agent pays interest directly to, or secures the payment of interest for the immediate benefit of, a beneficial owner resident in a Member State.

If a further issue is made on or after 1 March 2002 of an aforementioned negotiable debt security issued by a Government or a related entity acting as a public authority or whose role is recognised by an international Agreement (listed in Annex II to this Agreement), the entire issue of such a security, consisting of the original issue and any further issue shall be considered a debt-claim within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a).

If a further issue is made on or after 1 March 2002 of an aforementioned negotiable debt security issued by any other issuer not covered by the fourth subparagraph, such further issue shall be considered a debt-claim within the meaning of Article 6(1)(a).

2. This Article shall not prevent San Marino and the Member States from continuing to levy a tax on revenues deriving from the aforementioned negotiable debt-claims in paragraph 1 in accordance with their national law.

Article 12

Other withholding taxes - Relationships with other agreements

1. This Agreement shall not preclude the parties from levying other types of withholding tax than that referred to in this Agreement in accordance with their national laws or double taxation conventions.

2. The provisions of the double taxation conventions between San Marino and the Member States shall not prevent the levying of the withholding tax for which this Agreement provides.

Article 13

Exchange of information on request

1. The competent authorities of San Marino and of any Member State shall exchange information on conduct constituting tax fraud under the laws of the requested State, or the like for income covered by this Agreement. "The like" only includes offences with the same level of wrongfulness as is the case for tax fraud under the laws of the requested State, resulting in any prejudice for the taxation interests of the requesting State. In response to a duly justified request, the requested State shall provide information with respect to the conduct that the requesting State is investigating, or may investigate, on a criminal or non-criminal basis.

2. In determining whether information may be provided in response to a request, the requested State shall apply the statute of limitations applicable under the laws of the requesting State.

3. The requested State shall provide information where the requesting State has a reasonable suspicion that the conduct would constitute tax fraud or the like. The requesting State's reasonable suspicion of tax fraud or the like may be based on:

(a) documents, whether authenticated or not, and including but not limited to business records, books of account, or bank account information;

(b) testimonial information from the taxpayer;

(c) information obtained from an informant or other third person that has been independently corroborated or is otherwise likely to be credible; or

(d) circumstantial evidence.

4. The competent authority of the requesting State shall provide the following elements to the competent authority of the requested State when making a request for information under this Agreement to demonstrate the foreseeable relevance of the information to the request:

(a) the identity of the person under examination or investigation;

(b) a statement of the information sought including its nature and the form in which the requesting State wishes to receive the information from the requested State;

(c) the tax purpose for which the information is sought;

(d) grounds for believing that the information requested is held in the requested State or is in the possession or control of a person within the jurisdiction of the requested State;

(e) to the extent known, the name and address of any person believed to be in possession of the requested information;

(f) a statement that the request is in conformity with the law and administrative practices of the requesting State, that if the requested information was within the jurisdiction of the requesting State then the competent authority of the requesting State would be able to obtain the information under the laws of the requesting State or the normal course of administrative practice and that it is in conformity with this Agreement;

(g) a statement that the requesting State has pursued all means available in its own territory to obtain the information, except those that would give rise to disproportionate difficulties.

5. The competent authority of the requested State shall forward the requested information as promptly as possible to the requesting State.

6. San Marino shall enter into bilateral negotiations with each of the Member States in order to define individual categories of cases falling under "the like" in accordance with the procedure of taxation applied by those States.

Article 14

Confidentiality

Any information received by a Contracting Party under this Agreement shall be treated as confidential and may be disclosed only to persons or authorities (including courts and administrative bodies) in the jurisdiction of the Contracting Party concerned with the assessment or collection of, the enforcement or prosecution in respect of, or the determination of appeals in relation to, the taxes covered by this Agreement. Such persons or authorities shall use such information only for such purposes. They may disclose the information in public court proceedings or in judicial decisions. The information may not be disclosed to any other person or entity or authority or any other jurisdiction without the express written consent of the competent authority of the requested Party.

Article 15

If any disagreement arises between the competent authority of San Marino and one or more of the other competent authorities listed in Annex I as to the interpretation or application of this Agreement, they shall endeavour to resolve this by mutual agreement.

In relation to issues of interpretation the Commission may take part in consultations at the request of any of the competent authorities listed in Annex I.

2. The Contracting Parties shall consult each other at least every three years or at the request of either Contracting Party with a view to examining and, if deemed necessary by the Contracting Parties, improving the technical functioning of the Agreement and assessing international developments. The consultations shall be held within one month of the request or as soon as possible in urgent cases.

3. On the basis of such an assessment, the Contracting Parties may consult each other in order to examine whether changes to the Agreement are necessary taking into account international developments.

4. As soon as sufficient experience of the full implementation of this Agreement is available, the Contracting Parties shall consult each other in order to examine whether changes to this Agreement are necessary taking into account international developments.

5. For the purposes of the consultations referred to in paragraphs 1, 2 and 3, the Contracting Parties shall inform each other of possible developments which could impact on the proper functioning of this Agreement. This shall also include any relevant agreement between one of the Contracting Parties and a third State.
