Division 832 - Hybrid mismatch rules  

Guide to Division 832  

SECTION 832-1   What this Division is about  


A " hybrid mismatch " arises if double non-taxation results from the exploitation of differences in the tax treatment of an entity or financial instrument under the laws of 2 or more countries.

There is double non-taxation if a deductible payment is not included in a tax base (this is called a deduction/non-inclusion mismatch), or if a payment gives rise to 2 deductions (this is called a deduction/deduction mismatch). Disallowing a deduction, or including an amount in assessable income, " neutralises " this tax advantage.
