Paying or receiving income between Portugal and the Netherlands? Article 33 may decide where it is taxed.

The Convention was done in Portuguese, Dutch and English, each text being authentic; the English text prevails if the Portuguese and Dutch texts are interpreted differently. The Portuguese text is reproduced from the official publication. Editorial notes are ours and are not part of the Convention.

Applying the law
