Konvencija se v izvirniku v slovenskem in angleškem jeziku glasi (Besedilo konvencije v francoskem in nizozemskem jeziku je na vpogled v Sektorju za mednarodne pravne zadeve Ministrstva za zunanje zadeve Republike Slovenije):

Ta konvencija se uporablja za osebe, ki so rezidenti ene ali obeh držav pogodbenic.

2. Za davke na dohodek in premoženje štejemo vse davke, ki se uvedejo na celotni dohodek, na celotno premoženje ali na sestavine dohodka ali premoženja, vključujoč davke na dobiček od odsvojitve premičnin ali nepremičnin, davke na celotne zneske mezd ali plač, ki jih plačujejo podjetja, kot tudi davke na zvišanje vrednosti kapitala.

(v nadaljevanju: “belgijski davek”).
4. Ta konvencija se bo uporabljala tudi za kakršne koli enake ali vsebinsko podobne dajatve, ki bodo uvedene po datumu podpisa konvencije, dodatno k že obstoječim dajatvam ali namesto njih. Pristojni organi držav pogodbenic morajo drug drugega obvestiti o vseh bistvenih spremembah, ki so bile izvršene v ustreznih davčnih zakonih.

1. Za potrebe te konvencije, razen če kontekst ne zahteva drugače:
a) 1° izraz “Slovenija” pomeni Republiko Slovenijo; kadar je uporabljen v zemljepisnem pomenu, pomeni ozemlje Republike Slovenije, vključno s teritorialnim morjem in katerim koli drugim delom morja ali zraka, kjer Republika Slovenija v skladu z mednarodnim pravom uveljavlja suverene pravice ali svojo sodno pristojnost;
2° izraz “Belgija” pomeni Kraljevino Belgijo; kadar je uporabljen v zemljepisnem pomenu, pomeni ozemlje Kraljevine Belgije, vključno s teritorialnim morjem in katerim koli drugim delom morja in zraka, kjer Kraljevina Belgija v skladu z mednarodnim pravom uveljavlja svoje suverene pravice ali svojo sodno pristojnost;

2° vse pravne osebe, družabništva in združenja, katerih status izhaja iz zakonov, ki veljajo v državi pogodbenici.
2. Kadar država pogodbenica uporablja to konvencijo, ima vsak izraz, ki s konvencijo ni opredeljen, če kontekst ne zahteva drugače, tak pomen, kot ga ima po njenih zakonih, ki se nanašajo na davke, za katere se uporablja ta konvencija.

1. Za namene te konvencije izraz “rezident države pogodbenice” pomeni katero koli osebo, ki je v skladu z zakoni te države pogodbenice dolžna plačevati davke zaradi svojega stalnega prebivališča, bivališča, sedeža uprave ali katerega koli drugega kriterija podobne narave. Vendar ta izraz ne pomeni katere koli osebe, ki je dolžna plačevati v državi le davke od dohodkov, ki izvirajo v tej državi ali od premoženja, ki se tam nahaja.
2. Kadar je v skladu z določbami prvega odstavka posameznik rezident obeh držav pogodbenic, se njegov status opredeli, kot sledi:
a) šteje se za rezidenta države, kjer ima stalno prebivališče; če ima stalno prebivališče v obeh državah, se šteje za rezidenta države, s katero ima tesnejše osebne in ekonomske odnose (središče vitalnih interesov);
b) če države, v kateri ima središče svojih vitalnih interesov, ni mogoče določiti, ali če nima na razpolago stalnega prebivališča v eni ali drugi državi, se šteje, da je rezident države, v kateri običajno prebiva;
c) če ima svoje običajno bivališče v obeh državah ali v nobeni od njiju, se šteje za rezidenta države, katere državljan je;

3. Kadar je zaradi določb prvega odstavka oseba, razen posameznika, rezident v obeh državah pogodbenicah, se šteje za rezidenta države, v kateri je njen sedež dejanske uprave.

3. Izraz “stalna poslovna enota” prav tako vključuje gradbišče, projekt gradnje, montaže ali instalacij ali nadzorne dejavnosti v zvezi s tem, vendar samo, če takšna gradbišča, projekti ali dejavnosti trajajo dlje kot dvanajst mesecev.
4. Ne glede na prejšnje določbe tega člena se šteje, da izraz “stalna poslovna enota” ne vključuje:
a) uporabe prostorov izključno za skladiščenje, razstavljanje ali dostavo dobrin ali blaga, ki pripada podjetju;
b) vzdrževanja zalog dobrin ali blaga, ki pripada podjetju, samo zaradi skladiščenja, razstavitve ali dostave;

f) vzdrževanja stalnega kraja poslovanja izključno zaradi kakršne koli kombinacije dejavnosti, navedenih v pododstavkih a) do e), če je celotna dejavnost stalnega kraja poslovanja, ki izvira iz te kombinacije, pripravljalne ali pomožne narave.
5. Kljub določbam prvega in drugega odstavka, kjer oseba – ki ni zastopnik z neodvisnim statusom, za katerega veljajo določbe šestega odstavka – deluje v državi pogodbenici v imenu podjetja in ima oziroma običajno uporablja pooblastilo za sklepanje pogodb v imenu podjetja, se šteje, da ima podjetje stalno poslovno enoto v tej državi za vse dejavnosti, ki jih ta oseba opravlja za podjetje, razen če njene dejavnosti niso omejene na tiste, omenjene v četrtem odstavku, zaradi katerih se ta stalni kraj poslovanja po tem odstavku ne bi štel za stalno poslovno enoto, če bi se te dejavnosti opravljale prek stalnega kraja poslovanja.
6. Ne šteje se, da ima podjetje stalno poslovno enoto v državi pogodbenici, če opravlja posle v tej državi prek posrednika, splošnega komisionarja ali kakršnega koli drugega agenta, ki ima neodvisen status, če te osebe delujejo v okviru svojega rednega poslovanja.
7. Dejstvo, da družba, ki je rezident države pogodbenice, nadzoruje ali jo nadzoruje družba, ki je rezident druge države pogodbenice, oziroma ki izvaja posle v tej drugi državi (prek stalne poslovne enote ali drugače), samo po sebi še ne pomeni, da se taka družba šteje za stalno poslovno enoto druge.

1. Dohodek rezidenta države pogodbenice, ki izhaja iz nepremičnin (vključno z dohodkom od kmetijstva ali gozdarstva), ki so v drugi državi pogodbenici, se lahko obdavči v tej drugi državi.
2. Izraz “nepremičnine” ima pomen, ki ga določa zakonodaja države pogodbenice, v kateri je določena nepremičnina. Izraz zajema vselej tudi premoženje, ki je sestavni del nepremičnin, živi in neživi inventar kmetijskih in gozdnih gospodarstev, pravice, za katere veljajo določbe splošnega prava, ki se nanašajo na zemljiško lastnino, užitek na nepremičninah in pravice do spremenljivih ali stalnih plačil kot odškodnino za izkoriščanje ali pravico do izkoriščanja nahajališč rud, virov ter drugih naravnih bogastev. Ladje, čolni in letala se ne štejejo za nepremičnine.
3. Določbe prvega odstavka se uporabljajo tudi za dohodek, ustvarjen z neposredno uporabo, oddajanjem v najem ali drugačno uporabo nepremičnine.
4. Določbe prvega in tretjega odstavka se uporabljajo tudi za dohodek od nepremičnine podjetja in za dohodek od nepremičnine, ki se uporablja za opravljanje samostojnih osebnih storitev.

1. Dobiček podjetja države pogodbenice se obdavči samo v tej državi, razen če podjetje posluje v drugi državi pogodbenici prek stalne poslovne enote v njej. Če podjetje posluje kot prej omenjeno, se lahko dobiček podjetja obdavči v drugi državi, vendar samo v tolikšni meri, kolikor se pripisuje tej stalni poslovni enoti.
2. V skladu z določbami tretjega odstavka, kjer podjetje države pogodbenice posluje v drugi državi pogodbenici prek stalne poslovne enote v njej, bo v vsaki državi pogodbenici stalni poslovni enoti pripisan dobiček, ki bi ga lahko pričakovali, če bi bila podjetje in stalna poslovna enota dve različni in ločeni podjetji, ki se ukvarjata z enakimi ali podobnimi dejavnostmi pod enakimi ali podobnimi pogoji in delujeta popolnoma neodvisno drug od drugega.
3. Pri določanju dobičkov stalne poslovne enote se mora dovoliti odbitek stroškov, ki nastanejo pri poslovanju stalne poslovne enote, vključujoč poslovodne in splošne upravne stroške, ki so nastali bodisi v državi, kjer je stalna poslovna enota, ali drugje.
4. Če je bilo v državi pogodbenici običajno določati dobiček, ki se pripisuje stalni poslovni enoti na podlagi razdelitve celotnega dobička podjetja na različne dele, nič v drugem odstavku ne more preprečiti državi pogodbenici, da bi določala dobiček za obdavčenje s takšno razdelitvijo, ki je običajna. Metoda razdelitve mora vseeno biti takšna, da so rezultati v skladu z načeli, ki jih vsebuje ta člen.
5. Stalni poslovni enoti se ne pripisuje dobiček, če samo kupuje dobrine ali blago za podjetje.
6. Za namene prejšnjih odstavkov se morajo stalni poslovni enoti dobički določati po isti metodi leto za letom, razen če ni upravičenega in zadostnega razloga za nasprotno.
7. Kjer dobički vključujejo dele dohodka, ki so posebej obravnavani v drugih členih te konvencije, na določbe tistih členov ne bodo vplivale določbe tega člena.

1. Dobički iz prevozov z ladjami in letali v mednarodnem prometu se obdavčijo samo v državi pogodbenici, v kateri je sedež dejanske uprave podjetja.
2. Za namen tega člena dobički od prevozov z ladjami in letali v mednarodnem prometu vključujejo posebno:
a) priložnostne dobičke, ki izhajajo iz najemnin za same ladje ali letala, ki se uporabljajo v mednarodnem prometu;
b) dobičke, ki izhajajo iz uporabe ali najema kontejnerjev, če je tak dobiček dodaten ali naključen z ozirom na dobiček, za katerega veljajo določbe prvega odstavka.
3. Če je sedež dejanske uprave podjetja, ki se ukvarja z ladijskim pomorskim prometom, na ladji, se šteje, da je sedež dejanske uprave v državi pogodbenici, v kateri je matična luka ladje, če pa ladja nima matične luke, je sedež dejanske uprave v državi pogodbenici, katere rezident je prevoznik.
4. Določbe prvega odstavka veljajo tudi za dobičke iz udeležbe v poolu, mešanem podjetju ali mednarodnih poslovnih agencijah.

Kjer
a) podjetje države pogodbenice neposredno ali posredno sodeluje pri upravljanju, nadzoru ali v kapitalu podjetja druge države pogodbenice ali
b) iste osebe sodelujejo neposredno ali posredno pri upravljanju, nadzoru ali v kapitalu podjetja države pogodbenice in podjetja druge države pogodbenice,
in v obeh primerih obstajajo oziroma se uvedejo med dvema podjetjema v njunih komercialnih ali finančnih razmerjih pogoji, ki so drugačni od tistih, kakršni bi bili med neodvisnimi podjetji, potem se dobički, do katerih bi – če takih pogojev ne bi bilo – v enem od podjetij prišlo, vendar – prav zaradi takih pogojev do njih ni prišlo, smejo vključiti v dobičke tega podjetja in ustrezno obdavčiti.

1. Dividende, ki jih družba, rezident države pogodbenice, izplača rezidentu druge države pogodbenice, se lahko obdavčijo v drugi državi.
2. Vendar se takšne dividende lahko obdavči tudi v državi pogodbenici, katere rezident je družba, ki izplačuje dividende, v skladu z zakoni te države, če pa je upravičeni lastnik dividend rezident druge države pogodbenice, tako obračunani davek ne sme presegati:
a) 5 odstotkov bruto zneska dividend, če je upravičeni lastnik družba, ki ima neposredno v lasti najmanj 25 odstotkov kapitala družbe, ki plačuje dividende;
b) 15 odstotkov bruto zneska dividend v vseh drugih primerih.
Določbe tega odstavka ne vplivajo na obdavčenje družbe glede na dobičke, iz katerih so plačane dividende.
3. Izraz “dividende”, uporabljen v tem členu, pomeni dohodek iz delnic, “jouissance” delnic ali pravic, rudniških delnic, ustanoviteljskih delnic ali iz drugih pravic do udeležbe v dobičku, ki niso terjatve, kot tudi dohodek, celo če je izplačan v obliki obresti, ki se enako obravnava kot dohodek od delnic po notranji davčni zakonodaji države, katere rezident je družba, ki izvaja plačilo.
4. Določbe prvega in drugega odstavka ne veljajo, če upravičeni lastnik dividend, ki je rezident države pogodbenice, opravlja posle v drugi državi pogodbenici, katere rezident je družba, ki izplačuje dividende prek stalne poslovne enote podjetja, ki se tam nahaja, ali opravlja v drugi državi pogodbenici samostojne osebne storitve prek stalne baze, ki se tam nahaja, in je holding, ki se mu izplačujejo dividende, dejansko povezan s takšno stalno poslovno enoto ali stalno bazo. V takšnem primeru veljajo določbe 7. ali 14. člena, odvisno od primera.
5. Kadar družba, ki je rezident države pogodbenice, dobiva svoje dobičke ali dohodke iz druge države pogodbenice, ta druga država ne sme uvesti nobenih davkov na dividende, ki jih izplača družba, razen če so te dividende izplačane rezidentu te druge države, oziroma če je holding, ki se mu izplačujejo dividende, dejansko povezan s stalno poslovno enoto ali stalno bazo v tej drugi državi, niti ne obračunati na nerazdeljene dobičke družbe davka na nerazdeljene dobičke, celo če se izplačane dividende ali nerazdeljeni dobički sestojijo v celoti ali delno iz dobičkov ali dohodka, ki nastane v tej drugi državi pogodbenici.

1. Licenčnine in avtorski honorarji, ki nastanejo v državi pogodbenici in se izplačujejo rezidentu druge države pogodbenice, se lahko obdavčujejo v tej drugi državi.
2. Vendar pa se take licenčnine in avtorski honorarji lahko obdavčijo tudi v državi pogodbenici, v kateri nastanejo, v skladu z zakoni te države, vendar, če je upravičeni lastnik licenčnin in avtorskih honorarjev rezident druge države pogodbenice, tako zaračunan davek ne sme presegati 5 odstotkov bruto zneska licenčnin in avtorskih honorarjev.
3. Izraz “licenčnine in avtorski honorarji”, kot se uporablja v tem členu, pomeni kakršna koli plačila, prejeta za uporabo ali pravico do uporabe, kakršne koli avtorske pravice za literarno, umetniško ali znanstveno delo, vključno s kinematografskimi filmi in filmi ali trakovi za radijsko ali televizijsko oddajanje, patenta, zaščitne znamke, oblike ali modela, načrta, tajne formule ali postopka, ali za informacije, ki se nanašajo na industrijske, komercialne ali znanstvene izkušnje.
4. Določbe prvega in drugega odstavka se ne uporabljajo, če upravičeni lastnik licenčnin in avtorskih honorarjev, ki je rezident države pogodbenice, opravlja posle v drugi državi pogodbenici, v kateri nastajajo licenčnine in avtorski honorarji iz stalne poslovne enote, ki je v njej, ali opravlja v tej drugi državi samostojne osebne storitve iz stalne baze, ki je v njej, in je pravica ali lastnina, v zvezi s katero se izplačujejo licenčnine in avtorski honorarji, dejansko povezana s takšno stalno poslovno enoto ali stalno bazo. V takih primerih veljajo določbe 7. ali 14. člena, odvisno od primera.
5. Šteje se, da so licenčnine in avtorski honorarji nastali v državi pogodbenici, kadar je plačnik država, politična enota, organ lokalne oblasti ali rezident te države. Kadar pa ima oseba, ki plačuje licenčnine in avtorske honorarje, ne glede na to ali je rezident države pogodbenice ali ne, v državi pogodbenici stalno poslovno enoto ali stalno bazo, v zvezi s katero je nastala obveznost za plačilo licenčnin in avtorskih honorarjev in te licenčnine in avtorske honorarje plačuje stalna poslovna enota ali stalna baza, se šteje, da so licenčnine in avtorski honorarji nastali v državi, v kateri je stalna poslovna enota ali stalna baza.
6. Kadar zaradi posebnega odnosa med plačnikom in upravičenim lastnikom ali med obema in kako drugo osebo, znesek licenčnin in avtorskih honorarjev glede na uporabo, pravico ali informacijo, za katero se plačujejo, presega znesek, ki bi bil dogovorjen med plačnikom in upravičenim lastnikom, če takega odnosa ne bi bilo, se določbe tega člena uporabljajo samo za zadnji omenjeni znesek. V takšnem primeru se presežni del plačila obdavči v državi pogodbenici, kjer nastanejo licenčnine in avtorski honorarji, v skladu z zakoni te države.

1. Dobički, ki jih rezident države pogodbenice dobi z odtujitvijo nepremičnin,ki so navedene v 6. členu in so v drugi državi pogodbenici, se lahko obdavčijo v tej drugi državi.
2. Dobički od odtujitve premičnin, ki so del poslovnega premoženja stalne poslovne enote, ki jo ima podjetje države pogodbenice v drugi državi pogodbenici, ali premičnin, ki pripadajo stalni bazi, ki jo ima rezident države pogodbenice na voljo v drugi državi pogodbenici za opravljanje samostojnih osebnih storitev, vključujoč dobičke od odtujitve takšne stalne poslovne enote (samostojno ali skupaj s celotnim podjetjem) ali takšne stalne baze, se lahko obdavčijo v tej drugi državi.
3. Dobički od odtujitve ladij ali letal, s katerimi se opravljajo prevozi v mednarodnem prometu, ali premičnin v zvezi s prevozi takih ladij ali letal, se obdavčijo samo v državi pogodbenici, v kateri je sedež dejanske uprave podjetja.
4. Dobički od odtujitve kakršnega koli drugega premoženja, razen premoženja, navedenega v prvem, drugem in tretjem odstavku se obdavčijo samo v državi pogodbenici, katere rezident je oseba, ki odtuji premoženje.

1. Dohodek, ki ga rezident države pogodbenice ustvari s poklicnimi storitvami ali drugimi samostojnimi dejavnostmi, se obdavči samo v tej državi, razen če ima svojo stalno bazo za opravljanje svojih dejavnosti, ki mu je redno na voljo v drugi državi pogodbenici. V tem primeru se lahko v tej drugi državi obdavči samo tolikšen del dohodka, kolikor ga lahko pripišemo tej stalni bazi.
2. Izraz “poklicne storitve” vključuje še posebej samostojne znanstvene, literarne, umetniške, izobraževalne ali pedagoške dejavnosti kot tudi samostojne dejavnosti zdravnikov, odvetnikov, inženirjev, arhitektov, zobozdravnikov in računovodij.

1. V skladu z določbami iz 16., 18., 19. in 20. člena se plače, mezde in drugi podobni prejemki, ki jih prejema rezident države pogodbenice iz zaposlitve, obdavčijo samo v tej državi, razen če se zaposlitev izvaja v drugi državi pogodbenici. Če se zaposlitev izvaja v drugi državi, se lahko takšna plačila, ki od tam izvirajo, obdavčijo v tej drugi državi.
2. Kljub določbam prvega odstavka se prejemek, ki ga prejme rezident države pogodbenice iz zaposlitve, ki se izvaja v drugi državi pogodbenici, obdavči samo v prvi omenjeni državi, če:
a) prejemnik prebiva v drugi državi v obdobju ali obdobjih, ki ne presegajo skupno 183 dni v katerem koli dvanajstmesečnem obdobju, ki se začne ali konča v obračunskem letu, in
b) prejemek izplača oz. ga izplačajo v imenu delodajalca, ki ni rezident druge države, in
c) prejemka ne plačuje stalna poslovna enota ali stalna baza, ki jo ima delodajalec v drugi državi.
3. Ne glede na prejšnje določbe tega člena se prejemek iz zaposlitve, ki se izvaja na ladji ali letalu, s katerim se opravljajo prevozi v mednarodnem prometu, lahko obdavči v državi pogodbenici, v kateri je sedež dejanske uprave uprave podjetja.

1. Plačila direktorjem in druga podobna plačila, ki jih prejema rezident države pogodbenice kot član upravnega odbora družbe ali podobnega organa družbe, ki je rezident druge države pogodbenice, se lahko obdavčijo v tej drugi državi.
2. Plačilo, ki ga prejme oseba, navedena v prvem odstavku od družbe v zvezi z vsakodnevnim izpolnjevanjem dolžnosti vodstvene in tehnične narave in plačilo, ki ga prejme rezident države pogodbenice za osebne dejavnosti kot partner družbe, razen družbe z delniškim kapitalom, ki je rezident druge države pogodbenice, se lahko obdavči v skladu z določbami 15. člena, kot da bi bilo tako plačilo, plačilo, ki ga prejme uslužbenec iz zaposlitve in kot, če bi bilo sklicevanje na “delodajalca” sklicevanje na družbo.

1. Kljub določbam 14. in 15. člena se lahko dohodek, ki ga ustvari rezident države pogodbenice kot na primer gledališki, filmski, radijski ali televizijski umetnik ali glasbenik ali kot športnik, s svojimi osebnimi dejavnostmi, ki jih izvaja v drugi državi pogodbenici, obdavči v tej drugi državi.
2. Kadar dohodek iz osebnih dejavnosti, ki jih izvaja umetnik ali športnik s to svojo dejavnostjo, ne pripada samemu umetniku ali športniku, temveč drugi osebi, je ta dohodek kljub določbam 7., 14. in 15. člena lahko obdavčen v državi pogodbenici, v kateri se opravljajo dejavnosti umetnika ali športnika.
3. Določbe prvega in drugega odstavka se ne uporabljajo, če se dejavnosti, ki se izvajajo v državi pogodbenici, v glavnem podpirajo iz sredstev druge države pogodbenice ali politične enote ali organa lokalne oblasti. V takem primeru se dohodek, ki izvira iz takšnih dejavnosti, obdavči samo v tej drugi državi pogodbenici.

V skladu z določbami drugega odstavka 19. člena se pokojnine in druga podobna nadomestila, ki se izplačajo rezidentu države pogodbenice za preteklo zaposlitev, obdavčijo samo v tej državi.

b) Takšno plačilo se lahko obdavči samo v drugi državi pogodbenici, če so storitve izvršene v tej državi in če je posameznik rezident te druge države, ki:
1° je državljan te države; ali
2° ni postal rezident te države izključno za namene opravljanja storitev.
2. a) Vsaka pokojnina, ki jo izplačajo ali se izplača iz sredstev skladov, ki so jih oblikovali država pogodbenica, politična enota ali njen organ lokalne oblasti posamezniku v zvezi z opravljenimi storitvami za to državo, politično enoto ali njen organ lokalne oblasti, se obdavči samo v tej državi.
b) Vendar pa se takšna pokojnina obdavči samo v drugi državi pogodbenici, če je posameznik rezident in državljan te države.

1° kot odbitek od davka na dohodek tega rezidenta znesek, ki je enak davku na dohodek, plačanemu v Belgiji.
2° kot odbitek od davka na premoženje tega rezidenta znesek, ki je enak davku na premoženje, plačanemu v Belgiji.
Takšen odbitek v nobenem primeru ne bo presegal tistega dela davka na dohodek ali na premoženje, ki je bil izračunan pred odbitkom, in ki se nanaša, odvisno od primera, na dohodek ali na premoženje, ki se lahko obdavči v Belgiji.

b) V skladu z določbami belgijskega zakona , ki se nanašajo na odbitke davkov, plačanih v tujini, od belgijskega davka, kadar rezident Belgije dobi dele celotnega dohodka za belgijske davčne namene, ki so dividende, ki se obdavčijo v skladu z drugim odstavkom 10. člena in niso oproščene belgijskega davka v skladu s pododstavkom c) spodaj, obresti, ki se obdavčijo v skladu z drugim ali sedmim odstavkom 11. člena, ali licenčnine in avtorski honorarji, ki se obdavčijo v skladu z drugim ali šestim odstavkom 12. člena, bo slovenski davek, odmerjen od takega dohodka, odobren kot kredit za belgijski davek v zvezi s takim dohodkom.

1. Državljani države pogodbenice v drugi državi pogodbenici ne smejo biti zavezani kakršnemu koli obdavčevanju ali kakršnim koli zahtevam s tem v zvezi, ki je drugačno ali bolj obremenjujoče, kot je ali je lahko obdavčevanje in s tem povezane zahteve za državljane te druge države v enakih okoliščinah, še posebno glede rezidentstva. Ta določba velja, ne glede na določbe 1. člena, tudi za osebe, ki niso rezidenti ene ali obeh držav pogodbenic.
2. Osebe brez državljanstva, ki so rezidenti države pogodbenice ne smejo biti v nobeni državi pogodbenici zavezani kakršnemu koli obdavčenju ali kakršnim koli zahtevam s tem v zvezi, ki je drugačno ali bolj obremenjujoče, kot je, ali je lahko obdavčenje in s tem povezane zahteve za državljane zadevne države v enakih okoliščinah.
3. Obdavčenje stalne poslovne enote, ki jo ima podjetje države pogodbenice v drugi državi pogodbenici, ne sme biti manj ugodno v drugi državi pogodbenici, kot bi bilo obdavčenje podjetij te druge države, ki opravlja enake dejavnosti.Ta določba se ne razume, kot da zavezuje državo pogodbenico, da dodeli rezidentom druge države pogodbenice kakršne koli osebne olajšave in odbitke za davčne namene na račun osebnega statusa ali družinskih obveznosti, ki jih dodeljuje svojim rezidentom.

Tudi dolgovi podjetja države pogodbenice rezidentu druge države pogodbenice se pri ugotavljanju obdavčljivega premoženja tega podjetja odbijajo pod enakimi pogoji, kot da bi bili pogodbeno dogovorjeni z rezidentom prve omenjene države.
5. Podjetja države pogodbenice, katerih kapital je v celoti ali delno, neposredno ali posredno v lasti ali pod nadzorom enega ali več rezidentov druge države pogodbenice, ne smejo biti v prvi omenjeni državi zavezana kakršnemu koli obdavčevanju ali zahtevam s tem v zvezi, ki bi bile drugačne ali bolj obremenjujoče kot obdavčenje in s tem povezane zahteve, katerim so ali so lahko zavezana druga podobna podjetja prve omenjene države.
6. Nič, kar je navedeno v tem členu, se ne sme razumeti kot da ovira:
a) Belgijo, da bi obdavčila dobičke, ki se pripisujejo stalni poslovni enoti družbe, ki je rezident Slovenije, v Belgiji, po davčni stopnji, ki jo določa belgijski zakon pod pogojem, da ta stopnja ne presega največje stopnje, ki velja za dobičke družb, ki so rezidenti Belgije;
b) države pogodbenice, da odmeri davek po odbitku na dividende, ki izhajajo iz holdinga, ki je dejansko povezan s stalno poslovno enoto, ki jo ima v tej državi družba, ki je rezident druge države pogodbenice.
7. Določbe tega člena se uporabljajo kljub določbam 2. člena za davke vseh vrst in opisov.

1. Kadar oseba meni, da so ali bodo dejanja ene ali obeh držav pogodbenic imela kot posledico zanjo obdavčevanje, ki ni v skladu z določbami te konvencije, lahko ne glede na sredstva, ki mu jih omogoča domača zakonodaja teh dveh držav, predloži zadevo pristojnemu organu države pogodbenice, katere rezident je, če se njegov primer nanaša na prvi odstavek 24. člena, pa tisti državi pogodbenici, katere državljan je. Zadeva mora biti vložena v treh letih od prve prijave dejanja, ki je imelo za posledico obdavčenje, ki ni v skladu z določbami te konvencije.
2. Pristojni organ si mora, če se mu zdi pritožba upravičena in če sam ne more priti do zadovoljive rešitve, prizadevati razrešiti primer v skupnem dogovoru s pristojnim organom druge države pogodbenice, z namenom, da bi se izognil obdavčenju, ki ni v skladu z določbami te konvencije.

5. Pristojni organi držav pogodbenic neposredno komunicirajo drug z drugim o uporabi te konvencije.

1. Pristojni organi držav pogodbenic si izmenjujejo informacije, ki so potrebne za izvajanje določb te konvencije ali domačih zakonov držav pogodbenic, ki veljajo za davke, ki so zajeti v tej konvenciji, če obdavčevanje v skladu z njimi ne nasprotuje tej konvenciji. Izmenjava informacij ni omejena s 1. členom. Vsaka informacija, ki jo prejme država pogodbenica, se obravnava za tajno na enak način, kot se informacije, pridobljene po zakonih te države, in se razkrije samo osebam ali organom (vključno s sodišči in upravnimi organi), ki odmerjajo ali pobirajo davke iz te konvencije, ki izvajajo njihovo izterjavo ali pregon v zvezi z njimi, ali odločajo o pritožbah v zvezi z njimi. Te osebe in oblasti morajo uporabljati informacije samo v te namene. Informacije lahko razkrijejo na javnih sodnih razpravah ali pri sodnih odločitvah.
2. V nobenem primeru se določbe prvega odstavka ne smejo razumeti, kot da nalagajo obveznosti državi pogodbenici:
a) da izvaja administrativne ukrepe, ki niso v skladu z zakonodajo ali administrativno prakso te ali druge države pogodbenice;
b) da preskrbi informacije, ki jih ni mogoče dobiti po zakonski ali običajni upravni poti te ali druge države pogodbenice;

1. For the purposes of this Convention, the term “resident of a Contracting State” means any person who, under the laws of that State, is liable to tax therein by reason of his domicile, residence, place of management or any other criterion of a similar nature. But this term does not include any person who is liable to tax in that State in respect only of income from sources in that State or capital situated therein.

Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2, where a person-other than an agent of an independent status to whom paragraph 6 applies – is acting on behalf of an enterprise and has, and habitually exercises, in a Contracting State an authority to conclude contracts in the name of the enterprise, that enterprise shall be deemed to have a permanent establishment in that State in respect of any activities which that person undertakes for the enterprise, unless the activities of such person are limited to those mentioned in paragraph 4 which, if exercised through a fixed place of business, would not make this fixed place of business a permanent establishment under the provisions of that paragraph.
6. An enterprise shall not be deemed to have a permanent establishment in a Contracting State merely because it carries on business in that State through a broker, general commission agent or any other agent of an independent status, provided that such persons are acting in the ordinary course of their business.
7. The fact that a company which is a resident of a Contracting State controls or is controlled by a company which is a resident of the other Contracting State, or which carries on business in that other State (whether through a permanent establishment or otherwise), shall not of itself constitute either company a permanent establishment of the other.

1. Income derived by a resident of a Contracting State from immovable property (including income from agriculture or forestry) situated in the other Contracting State may be taxed in that other State.
2. The term “immovable property” shall have the meaning which it has under the law of the Contracting State in which the property in question is situated. The term shall in any case include property accessory to immovable property, livestock and equipment used in agriculture and forestry, rights to which the provisions of general law respecting landed property apply, usufruct of immovable property and rights to variable or fixed payments as consideration for the working of, or the right to work, mineral deposits, sources and other natural resources; ships, boats and aircraft shall not be regarded as immovable property.

1. The profits of an enterprise of a Contracting State shall be taxable only in that State unless the enterprise carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein. If the enterprise carries on business as aforesaid, the profits of the enterprise may be taxed in the other State but only so much of them as is attributable to that permanent establishment.
2. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 3, where an enterprise of a Contracting State carries on business in the other Contracting State through a permanent establishment situated therein, there shall in each Contracting State be attributed to that permanent establishment the profits which it might be expected to make if it were a distinct and separate enterprise engaged in the same or similar activities under the same or similar conditions and dealing wholly independently with the enterprise of which it is a permanent establishment.
3. In determining the profits of a permanent establishment, there shall be allowed as deductions expenses which are incurred for the purposes of the permanent establishment, including executive and general administrative expenses so incurred, whether in the State in which the permanent establishment is situated or elsewhere.
4. Insofar as it has been customary in a Contracting State to determine the profits to be attributed to a permanent establishment on the basis of an apportionment of the total profits of the enterprise to its various parts, nothing in paragraph 2 shall preclude that Contracting State from determining the profits to be taxed by such an apportionment as may be customary; the method of apportionment adopted shall, however, be such that the result shall be in accordance with the principles contained in this Article.
5. No profits shall be attributed to a permanent establishment by reason of the mere purchase by that permanent establishment of goods or merchandise for the enterprise.
6. For the purposes of the preceding paragraphs, the profits to be attributed to the permanent establishment shall be determined by the same method year by year unless there is good and sufficient reason to the contrary.
7. Where profits include items of income which are dealt with separately in other Articles of this Convention, then the provisions of those Articles shall not be affected by the provisions of this Article.

b) profits derived from the use or rental of containers, if such profits are supplementary or incidental with respect to profits to which the provisions of paragraph 1 apply.
3. If the place of effective management of a shipping enterprise is aboard a ship, then it shall be deemed to be situated in the Contracting State in which the home harbour of the ship is situated, or, if there is no such home harbour, in the Contracting State of which the operator of the ship is a resident.
4. The provisions of paragraph 1 shall also apply to profits from the participation in a pool, a joint business or an international operating agency.

Where
a) an enterprise of a Contracting State participates directly or indirectly in the management, control or capital of an enterprise of the other Contracting State, or
b) the same persons participate directly or indirectly in the management, control or capital of an enterprise of a Contracting State and an enterprise of the other Contracting State,
and in either case conditions are made or imposed between the two enterprises in their commercial or financial relations which differ from those which would be made between independent enterprises, then any profits which would, but for those conditions, have accrued to one of the enterprises, but, by reason of those conditions, have not so accrued, may be included in the profits of that enterprise and taxed accordingly.

1. Dividends paid by a company which is a resident of a Contracting State to a resident of the other Contracting State may be taxed in that other State.
2. However, such dividends may also be taxed in the Contracting State of which the company paying the dividends is a resident and according to the laws of that State, but if the beneficial owner of the dividends is a resident of the other Contracting State the tax so charged shall not exceed:
a) 5 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends if the beneficial owner is a company which holds directly at least 25 per cent of the capital of the company paying the dividends;
b) 15 per cent of the gross amount of the dividends in all other cases.
This paragraph shall not affect the taxation of the company in respect of the profits out of which the dividends are paid.
3. The term “dividends” as used in this Article means income from shares, “jouissance” shares or “jouissance” rights, mining shares, founders’ shares or other rights, not being debt-claims, participating in profits, as well as income -even paid in the form of interest- which is treated as income from shares by the internal tax legislation of the State of which the paying company is a resident.
4. The provisions of paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply if the beneficial owner of the dividends, being a resident of a Contracting State, carries on business in the other Contracting State of which the company paying the dividends is a resident, through a permanent establishment situated therein, or performs in that other State independent personal services from a fixed base situated therein, and the holding in respect of which the dividends are paid is effectively connected with such permanent establishment or fixed base. In such case the provisions of Article 7 or Article 14, as the case may be, shall apply.
5. Where a company which is a resident of a Contracting State derives profits or income from the other Contracting State, that other State may not impose any tax on the dividends paid by the company, except insofar as such dividends are paid to a resident of that other State or insofar as the holding in respect of which the dividends are paid is effectively connected with a permanent establishment or a fixed base situated in that other State, nor subject the company’s undistributed profits to a tax on the company’s undistributed profits, even if the dividends paid or the undistributed profits consist wholly or partly of profits or income arising in such other State.

1. Interest arising in a Contracting State and paid to a resident of the other Contracting State may be taxed in that other State.
2. However, such interest may also be taxed in the Contracting State in which it arises and according to the laws of that State, but if the beneficial owner of the interest is a resident of the other Contracting State the tax so charged shall not exceed 10 per cent of the gross amount of the interest.
3. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2, interest shall be exempted from tax in the Contracting State in which it arises if it is:
a) interest on commercial debt-claims -including debt-claims represented by commercial paper- resulting from deferred payments for goods, merchandise or services supplied by an enterprise;

In such case the provisions of Article 7 or Article 14, as the case may be, shall apply.
6. Interest shall be deemed to arise in a Contracting State when the payer is that State itself, a political subdivision, a local authority or a resident of that State. Where, however, the person paying the interest, whether he is a resident of a Contracting State or not, has in a Contracting State a permanent establishment or a fixed base in connection with which the indebtedness on which the interest is paid was incurred, and such interest is borne by such permanent establishment or fixed base, then such interest shall be deemed to arise in the State in which the permanent establishment or fixed base is situated.
7. Where, by reason of a special relationship between the payer and the beneficial owner or between both of them and some other person, the amount of the interest, having regard to the debt-claim for which it is paid, exceeds the amount which would have been agreed upon by the payer and the beneficial owner in the absence of such relationship, the provisions of this Article shall apply only to the last-mentioned amount. In such case, the excess part of the payments shall remain taxable in the Contracting State in which the interest arises according to the laws of that State.

In such case the provisions of Article 7 or Article 14, as the case may be, shall apply.
5. Royalties shall be deemed to arise in a Contracting State when the payer is that State itself, a political subdivision, a local authority or a resident of that State. Where, however, the person paying the royalties, whether he is a resident of a Contracting State or not, has in a Contracting State a permanent establishment or a fixed base in connection with which the liability to pay the royalties was incurred, and such royalties are borne by such permanent establishment or fixed base, then such royalties shall be deemed to arise in the State in which the permanent establishment or fixed base is situated.
6. Where, by reason of a special relationship between the payer and the beneficial owner or between both of them and some other person, the amount of the royalties, having regard to the use, right or information for which they are paid, exceeds the amount which would have been agreed upon by the payer and the beneficial owner in the absence of such relationship, the provisions of this Article shall apply only to the last-mentioned amount. In such case, the excess part of the payments shall remain taxable in the Contracting State in which the royalties arise, according to the laws of that State.

c) Where in accordance with any provision of the Convention income derived or capital owned by a resident of Slovenia is exempt from tax in that State, Slovenia may nevertheless, in calculating the amount of tax on the remaining income or capital of such a resident, take into account the exempted income or capital.
2. In the case of Belgium, double taxation shall be avoided as follows:
a) Where a resident of Belgium derives income or owns elements of capital which are taxed in Slovenia in accordance with the provisions of the Convention, other than those of paragraph 2 of Article 10, of paragraphs 2 and 7 of Article 11 and of paragraphs 2 and 6 of Article 12, Belgium shall exempt such income or such elements of capital from tax but may, in calculating the amount of tax on the remaining income or capital of that resident, apply the rate of tax which would have been applicable if such income or elements of capital had not been exempted.

The taxation on a permanent establishment which an enterprise of a Contracting State has in the other Contracting State shall not be less favourably levied in that other State than the taxation levied on enterprises of that other State carrying on the same activities.

Enterprises of a Contracting State, the capital of which is wholly or partly owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by one or more residents of the other Contracting State, shall not be subjected in the first-mentioned State to any taxation or any requirement connected therewith which is other or more burdensome than the taxation and connected requirements to which other similar enterprises of the first-mentioned State are or may be subjected.

b) a Contracting State from imposing its withholding tax on dividends derived from a holding which is effectively connected with a permanent establishment maintained in that State by a company which is a resident of the other Contracting State.

The case must be presented within three years from the first notification of the action resulting in taxation not in accordance with the provisions of the Convention.
2.

Such persons or authorities shall use the information only for such purposes. They may disclose the information in public court proceedings or in judicial decisions.
2. In no case shall the provisions of paragraph 1 be construed so as to impose on a Contracting State the obligation:
a) to carry out administrative measures at variance with the laws and administrative practice of that or of the other Contracting State;
b) to supply information which is not obtainable under the laws or in the normal course of the administration of that or of the other Contracting State;
c) to supply information which would disclose any trade, business, industrial, commercial or professional secret or trade process, or information, the disclosure of which would be contrary to public policy (ordre public).

This Convention shall remain in force until terminated by a Contracting State but either Contracting State may terminate the Convention, through diplomatic channels, by giving to the other Contracting State, written notice of termination not later than the 30th June of any calendar year from the fifth year following that in which the instruments of ratification have been exchanged. In the event of termination before July 1 of such year, the Convention shall cease to have effect:
a) with respect to taxes due at source on income credited or payable on or after January 1 of the year next following the year in which the notice of termination is given;
