What payments are subject to WHT?

  • Compensation for disclosure of a secret of a recipe or production process, for use of or the right to use an industrial device, including means of transport, a commercial device or a scientific device.

The specificity of these settlements requires knowledge of the tax regulations as well as international tax treaties.

Note!
Starting from 2019, in verifying the conditions for applying WHT at other than the basic rate, exemption or refraining from collection of WHT, the remitter is required to apply due diligence. The nature and scale of the remitter’s operations are considered when assessing whether it has used due diligence. The revised definition of the beneficial owner of payments is also highly relevant in this respect.
