The Article defines fees for technical services as payments for managerial, technical or consultancy services (including personnel), excludes Articles 15 and 16 services, treats source as payer residence subject to attribution to a permanent establishment or fixed base, and limits taxation to an arm's-length amount where special relationships inflate payments.
