Frequently Asked Questions About International Tax
What is international tax?
International tax covers situations where there are international conditions or activities. This can be, for example, if you live or work abroad, have income, property, or a company in another country, or move to or from Denmark.
When do you have to pay tax in Denmark and abroad?
If you are fully tax liable in Denmark, you must as a rule pay tax in Denmark on your global income. You may also have to pay tax in another country if you have income, property, or a company there. Double taxation agreements determine whether tax must be paid in Denmark, abroad, or both.
How is double taxation avoided?
Double taxation agreements between Denmark and other countries determine which country has the right to tax the income and how double taxation is avoided. Relief can be given either by exemption or by credit for foreign tax.
What should you pay attention to in international tax matters?
International tax rules are complex, and mistakes can result in double taxation, extra tax, or fines. It is important to report income and property correctly and to know the rules in both Denmark and the other country.
