Article 23 provides reciprocal elimination mechanisms: residents of the territory in paragraph 3(a) get a deduction from domestic tax for tax paid in the other territory, limited to the tax attributable to the income taxed abroad, and exempt income may still be taken into account when computing tax on remaining income. Residents of the territory in paragraph 3(b) receive a credit for tax paid in the other territory against domestic tax, subject to a limit equal to domestic tax on that income; dividend-related taxes on underlying profits are excluded from the credit, and exempt income may be considered in computing tax on other income.
