Not only is that unsourced, its just silly. Do you really think the EU would make that kind of mistake? The whole idea is just nonsense. -- SJK 13:23, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
The statement you deleted referred to Bermuda (rather than Barbados), which was left off the list of dependencies and territories in error. Well, that's what Big 4 accountancy firm Ernst & Young say anyway http://www.ey.com/global/download.nsf/Austria/EU_Savings_Directive_0106/$file/EUSD%20Alert_V4.pdf Bosh 78 21:49, 29 November 2006 (UTC)Bosh_78
"...depositing funds in tax havens with strong bank secrecy laws."? This statement seems to be rather partisan. Perhaps it should be re-written to be more neutral in tone: "...depositing funds in countries beyond the reach of EU taxation powers." (I'm being objective here - my heart tells me "...beyond the grasp of EU taxation")! 125.231.3.48 00:38, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
Beckham law is also applied to Spanish citizens who have been out of Spain for a certain period. Beckham law establishes a lower taxation percentage in national income than the Spanish law. Therefore it is not only restricted to national income but ALSO the taxation is lower.

Are these two sub-headings really connected in any way with the EU withholding tax? They seem to me to just be comments on the general tax laws with respect to cross-border matters in two EU states. -- Legis ( talk - contribs) 14:41, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
Yes they are connected because they define areas where exemption from the tax is applicable Although 23:27, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
37. Si le bénéficiaire des intérêts est résident dans un Etat membre de l’UE, mais n’y est pas assujetti aux impôts pour toutes les composantes de son revenu, la fiscalité de l’épargne de l’UE est tout de même applicable. S’il est toutefois prouvé à l’agent payeur que le bénéficiaire des intérêts est exonéré de manière générale de l’impôt sur le revenu dans l’Etat membre de l’UE dans lequel il a son domicile ou que, à défaut de leur transfert dans l’Etat de domicile („remittance“), les intérêts qui lui ont été payés n’y sont pas soumis à une imposition, la fiscalité de l’épargne de l’UE ne trouve pas application.
The full Swiss directive is here (in French I am afraid). Swiss implementation of EU Savings Directive in French
Clearly under the above rule UK resident but non-UK domiciled individuals who prove their status as well as any Foreign resident of Spain who can prove that he has obtained a ruling of exemption from tax on foreign income eill be exempt from paying the EU Savings Tax in Switzerland.
An editor reports that the Isle of Man has changed its stance to "full disclosure" and removed it from the list. A citation for this (here, not in the article) would be good. -- Red King ( talk) 17:55, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
An editor placed the following onto the article page:
No ! this is certainly not up to date : the Channel Islands will no longer have banking secrecy but will have information exchange. Also the Isle of Man. PLEASE correct this article , thank you.
I have added a disputed-section tag and this talk section to discuss correction. 212.159.70.147 ( talk) 23:32, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

==WP Tax Class==
Start class because needs references. With references, it would immediately go up to at least B class if not Good Article class. EECavazos 17:56, 7 November 2007 (UTC) ==WP Tax Priority== Mid priority because it covers several different countries and is important. Probably should to high, but I'll leave someone else to make that decision. EECavazos 17:57, 7 November 2007 (UTC) |
