Overview of the objection process
Most of the UK바카라 사이트™s double taxation agreements contain a provision (called a MAP) allowing a customer to object if they believe they are not being taxed in accordance with the terms of the agreement.
If you believe you바카라 사이트™re not being taxed in accordance with the terms of a double taxation agreement and the agreement contains a MAP you can present your case to the 바카라 사이트˜competent authority바카라 사이트™ of the state of which you바카라 사이트™re a resident or national. This procedure is also referred to as 바카라 사이트˜a request for competent authority assistance바카라 사이트™.
Within the European Union, taxpayers can also request MAP assistance under the European Arbitration Convention. No new MAP claims will be accepted under the Convention from 1 January 2021.
HMRC have published a Statement of Practice about the use of MAP.
