Правовой режим временного применения Протоколов к налоговым соглашениям России с Кипром и Мальтой

Abstract

Theoretical and practical aspects of provisional application of double taxation avoidance agreements are analysed in the article. The author analyses the conditions of provisional application of protocols on amendment of Russia’s tax treaties with Malta and with Cyprus of 2020. The Russian Federation as a rule resort to provisional application of international treaties only in exceptional cases when the treaty is of exceptional interest and there is a need in its “start” before its entering into force. The author draws attention to the fact that the provisional application of the treaty can be regulated both with indication on this condition in the treaty itself or with separate treaty. The author also provides examples from the practice of international cooperation into the tax sphere.
