Interest taxation limits restrict source-state withholding on cross-border interest, with exemptions for governments, central banks, and approved export finance institutions. Source-state taxation of interest is permitted but limited by a reduced withholding rate when the recipient is the beneficial owner; exemptions apply for interest beneficially owned by governments, central banks, and approved export or public trade financing institutions. Interest effectively connected with a permanent establishment or fixed base is taxed under business or personal services provisions, and related-party excess interest is adjusted to arm's-length amounts for treaty application.
