The Isle of Man's Tax Information Exchange Agreement (TIEA)
and agreement for the Avoidance of Double Taxation with the
Republic of Slovenia entered into force on 31 August 2012.
The agreements were signed on 27 June 2011 in Douglas, Isle of
Man by His Excellency Iztok Jarc, the Slovenian Ambassador and by
the then Manx Treasury Minister, Anne Craine MHK.
The Isle of Man ratified the agreements at the December 2011
sitting of Tynwald and the Slovenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs
has now confirmed that the Republic of Slovenia has also completed
its ratification procedures.
The negotiation, signing and ratification of TIEAs demonstrates
the Isle of Man's commitment to meeting agreed international
standards and to the principles of co-operation between countries,
transparency and effective exchange of information in tax matters.
It also demonstrates its dedication to implementing the directives
of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development
(OECD), which are widely viewed as the international standards for
effective tax relations between nations.
