Australian Tax Treaties
Subject to the provisions of paragraph 3, income or gains derived by a resident of one of the Contracting States which, under any one or more of Articles 6 to 8, Articles 10 to 19 and Article 21, may be taxed in the other Contracting State shall for the purposes of the law of that other Contracting State relating to its tax be deemed to be income from sources in that other Contracting State.
2.
Income or gains derived by a resident of one of the Contracting States which, under any one or more of Articles 6 to 8, Articles 10 to 19 and Article 21, may be taxed in the other Contracting State shall for the purposes of Article 23 and of the law of the first-mentioned Contracting State relating to its tax be deemed to be income from sources in that other Contracting State.
3.
The provisions of paragraph 1 shall not apply in relation to interest, to which Article 11 applies and to which a resident of Australia is beneficially entitled, until such time as the law of Papua New Guinea relating to Papua New Guinea tax provides for source rules, in relation to interest, consistent with those provisions.
4.
Where a resident of one of the Contracting States derives income directly or indirectly from or in relation to fisheries activities carried on within the Protected Zone of the Torres Strait, that income may be taxed only by that State.
5.
In paragraph 4, the term " Protected Zone " has the same meaning that it has in the Treaty made between Australia and the Independent State of Papua New Guinea concerning Sovereignty and Maritime Boundaries in the area between the two Countries, and signed at Sydney on 18 December 1978.
