Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA)

Imagine a scenario where you are a tax citizen (resident) of state A (because your family attends a local and city nursery there where they stay all 365 days a year), but you drive your income and job every week 5 working days a week daily to fulfill obligations with a company closely on the commercial plateau of state B across the border crossing. The problem is: Which of the two can demand income tax from your collected global amount?

Tax Greed of Two Laws and Collision of Rights

According to the Law of State A (e.g., Germany), the German tax system will say: "He is predominantly and deeply rooted as a German taxpayer because his family and house are here, therefore he must contribute a percentage of absolutely all his global earned money to the treasury regardless of whether it is from the world or Mars".

At the same time, the foreign state B (where the person physically passes over the terminal borders every morning to the production line of a factory with work), at its foreign tax border claims with constitutionally straightforward logic: "Income from work that employer B finances and that happened physically from the masonry here on this soil of my building, belongs in fundamental shares to the exclusive treasury of my nation and not that Germany".

If both sides insisted at the same time, a person would die of starvation because they would seize 30% and 30% of progressive strict levies of tax rates in the full total of their heights from the gross salary by the same principle of collection power. Because of this, bilateral cooperation agreements are concluded (DTAA - international).

Two Global and Only Contractual Methods (How the Levy is Relieved)

Exemption Method

If the country of residence recognizes this easy measure of cooperation in its international consensus law for that neighboring specific foreign contracting state of work, the resident of the country of residence will only report to the Tax Administration (submit a report at the end of the 2nd month of the current year on the global payroll taxpayer and money with the accounting stamp of the foreign taxer that the transfer and deductions were duly carried out there). Then the country of residence fully forgives (spares you cleanly and purely from the burden of differences) the amount on that taxable income! The tax to the foreign entity is concluded with this because there are no higher charges at home or taxes in withdrawal and differential corrections in excess from the tax reach.

Credit Method

This method is mathematically stricter. In this rule, a resident of domestic tax residency (BIH) would pay a smaller mandatory tax to the coast outside at the foreign factory border, only to have our native BIH tax administration subsequently apply its progressive rate of strict calculation, e.g., on the earned 5,000.00 KM net according to our calculator for collection and "Recognize or include that smaller foreign tax deficit from abroad" into the deduction of the amount called the Tax return in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina to "seize" additionally from that salary that small heavy legal remaining difference up to the amount you would have paid on it in the entire payout office and given to the budget if it had always happened in front of our doors according to our legal thresholds. The foreign state does not return calculated back if their foreign regulation takes on a bigger or higher amount of law regulation in percentages of income than our native legal fuel! The measure is taken exclusively as recognition and reduction of payment within the specified regulations of boundaries and differences!

What if there is NO AGREEMENT on preventing double taxation with the state?

There are certain foreign states within the world with which requested government, unfortunately, due to external non-competitiveness of policy, has never contractually agreed the mentioned benefits of agreed payouts. If there is no agreement, the sum and money are mercilessly exploited by the worst, above-mentioned constitutional red explanation. First, the foreign party will tear off its absolute share of the rate in the gross and pay the foreigner a raw smaller untouched in the statement money without the right to a return of deduction, etc. And on such a received reduced smaller net achieved receipt with all failures and directly on transfer to the domestic residential bank checking account, the domestic overseer tax municipality, upon search of automatic acceptance in the remittance system with interest, still adds the full scale of income obligations over the whole sum from the initial, that foreign masonry paper – "not sparing" you from the cost of work – double-snookered to complete existential absurdity and leaving the pauper from a high-profit foreign salary!
