Key terms govern the Agreement's scope: Contracting Party, competent authority, person, company, publicly traded company, principal class of shares, recognised stock exchange, collective investment fund or scheme, tax, applicant and requested Parties, information gathering measures, information, and depositary; it also defines criminal tax matters and criminal laws. Where the Agreement does not define a term, that term takes the meaning given by the domestic law of the applying Contracting Party at the time, with meanings under that Party's tax laws prevailing over other domestic-law meanings.
