Treaty dates

How the rates apply

• The rate in the table is the most the source country may charge. If that country's own law sets a lower rate, the lower rate applies.
• The reduced rate requires the recipient to be the beneficial owner of the income. For payments from Türkiye, the recipient's certificate of residence should be obtained before payment.
• The rates do not apply to income connected with a permanent establishment or fixed base of the recipient in the source country; the business profits or independent services rules apply instead.
• Türkiye's domestic rates: Withholding tax rates · Certificate of residence: Tax treaties and certificate of residence · Payments abroad: Tax on payments abroad
